=== Apple IIc ===
The Apple IIc is the fourth model in the Apple II series. It was introduced shortly after the launch of the original Macintosh in 1984. The c in the name stands for compact. It is essentially a remarkably compact version of the Apple IIe. The IIc has a built-in 5.25inch floppy disk drive, and was often sold with its matching monitor. === Apple IIc Plus === The Apple IIc Plus is the final model in the Apple II series. It was released in september 1988, 2 years after the Apple IIgs. It uses the same case as the Apple IIc but the 6502 is clocked at 4MHz instead of 1.023MHz for the Apple IIc. And it is equipped with a 3.5inch floppy drive instead of the 5.25inch floppy drive of the Apple IIc. == Next generation ==
