This EARLY Macintosh was producedduring week 09 of 1984 as decoded from the serial # label on the Mac thatbegins with F409 (F= Fremont, CA production plant, 4= 1984, 09 = 9th week ofyear) indicating this Mac was produced sometime during the first week of February/last March of 1984. The Macintosh was firstintroduced and launched on January 24th 1984, so this Mac was manufactured only one month after the initial launch!

Macintoshsystem unit- (Model M0001)- Original motherboard NON-upgraded original 128K, with the original 400K single-sided internal floppy disk drive and the original external Model M0001 128K case housing and emblems.

Motherboard is the original early 1984 128K board with original early 1984 Version A ROM set, early ceramic CPU, and 128K RAM never modified or upgraded! Many of these original Macs were upgraded to 512K RAM and larger capacity disk drive, very rare to find one like this that is still all original exactly as it came from Apple in 1984! Original ROM chip set date coded 8402 indicating week 2 of 1984 production! Original Apple branded 128K RAM chips on the early 128K motherboard.

Original 'Macintosh' emblem and Model M0001 label on rear (very late 1984 production M0001 Macs had a revised 'Macintosh 128k' emblem starting sometime during week 47 of production, all Macs before then had this original "Macintosh" emblem).

Mac isthe original beige/cream color, not darkly yellowed,mismatched, marked up, cracked, or damaged like many are now. There is some typical minor darkening and discoloration. No markerwriting, no stickers, no old sticker outlines, no cracks or missing parts, noengravings, has a small scuff mark or nick on the front side edge left of the screen. Just minor imperfections as expected for a 40+ year old vintage pre-ownedcomputer, very hard to find now in this very nice clean cosmetic condition.

The case does not have ugly pry marks all around the case seams, which greatly detractsfrom appearance and value. Many original Macs seen now have large nicks and chips all along the seams that connect the front case face to the back case, butoften is not shown, or cannot be seen in photos. Macs that were improperly pried apart along the case seams with the wrong tools to open the case will have ugly gouges and large nicks all along the plastic case seams.

Screenis bright, crisp, and stable, no scratches on theglass 9" black and white CRT display.Allfour original rubber feet on bottom of case and clean, not sticky or melted like many found now are.

Includedoriginal Macintosh disks load, run, and eject as expected.Original Macsare completely dependent on the internal floppy drive, as there is no hard drive, sohaving a properly serviced and tested floppy disk drive like this Mac isessential for actual use of the system. Most found now will have non-functioning drives that need extensive service or complete replacement, and these early drives in working condition are very hard to find now.
