I am using a Classic II at home at the moment. It serves as my "fun machine", but I'm also completing a (now delayed) project on it. It runs System 7.1, ClarisWorks 1.0, MacPaint (since ClarisWorks doesn't have a paint module), Print Shop, and Calendar Maker. I tend to use it a lot for "fun" things like creating training schedules for running, trip planning, occasionally a short story. It does have some games on it as well--Shufflepuck Cafe, Battle Chess, Star Wars, Lemmings, Cairo Shoot Out, Hardball II, Klondike, a Minesweeper clone, and Tetris Max. This is a pampered little Mac--it has a carrying bag, dust covers, an extra keyboard (I use the Extended II for writing), an extra mouse (a Kensington ADB), and has had both the analog and logic boards recapped. I'd like to put an SSD in it sometime, too. Oh, and it has the best screen saver you could ask for--the After Dark Disney Collection!!
(Ironically, my black and white Mickey Mouse plush sits next to the same machine which generates black and white Mickeys on its screen).
That Classic II has been around for a long time. I first came across it when I visited Columbus, Ohio for the first time. It was sitting in the window of a store called Macmobile. My cousin bought it for me for my 15th birthday, about a week after I spotted it there. I brought it home and was in for a HUGE surprise...inside was a FastMath Classic II math coprocessor!!! I know I don't really run anything which demands it, but still, it's a cool option to have just for the sake of having it--sort of like having a spoiler on an Oldsmobile Alero. It doesn't improve the car's performance one bit, but it sure is cool to have.
I also have a bunch of other compacts which get used with the kids. I've written about that numerous times on here, but at present, the "mobile lab" has eight compacts--five SEs (three have SuperDrives) and two Classics (one of which was re-capped last year, the other of which will hopefully get re-capped this summer). The lab also has a pair of LC IIs, a IIci, and a Performa 575. An LC will round it out for an even dozen once I get it working again.
