Mac IIcx

Overview

Building on the success of the Mac IIx, the 1989 IIcx offered the same horsepower in a smaller case. This was made possible by eliminating 3 Nubus slots and using a smaller (90W) power supply. Although advertised as a 32-bit computer, the Mac IIx ROMS were "dirty," containing some 24-bit code. Running in 32-bit mode requires MODE 32 from Connectix.
