- MacWorld, May 1992, pg. 141, sidebar: "IIsi vs. LCII"

- (provided by some 3rd party vendors)
-

-
- expansion: IIsi - 32 bit NuBus or 32 bit 030 direct slot, LCII - 16 bit
- LC slot
-
- memory expansion: IIsi - 17mb, LCII 10mb (note: This is no longer true,
- as 16mb SIMMs ar available. That brings the IIsi up to 65mb. The LCII is
- permanently stuck at 10mb!)
