Although the IIsi
was marketed as a 20 MHz computer, users quickly
discovered it used parts rated at 25 MHz. (Apple
had intended it as a 25 MHz computer, but chose
to scale back the speed to avoid cutting into
IIci sales.) Chipping the IIsi to 25 MHz -- or
even 28 MHz -- is not unusual.
Along with the
LC, the IIsi was one of the first Macs with audio
input. You can do a lot with a IIsi. I know of
a Mac IIsi being used as a server for an ethernet
network, another being used to play kids games,
and there are even some where I live being used
for QuarkXPress and Illustrator.
