Early Macintosh Plus

This is a Mac Plus I found at an antique store in 2015 for $60. Wasn’t the steal of the century, but I had a platinum Plus, so I really wanted this beige one.

Turns out, it was a very early product unit! I just recently discovered the serial decoder on myoldmac.net, and it is indeed an early one like I thought:

I’d get some inside shots, but I have misplaced my tool. I do remember the CRT had a late 1985 manufacture date on it, which told me it had to be a pretty early Plus.

It is also fully-stock with the original 1MB even.

I don’t plan on upgrading it, since my platinum Plus already has 4MB.

Just thought I’d share this!
