The Apple IIc is a personal computer that was introduced by Apple Inc. shortly after the launch of the original Macintosh (Macintosh 128K). It was a compact and portable version of the Apple II series of computers. The IIc featured a built-in floppy disk drive and a keyboard, and was often sold with its matching monitor. The c in the name stood for compact, referring to the fact it was a complete Apple II computer setup with a floppy drive that was squeezed into a smaller notebook-sized housing. It was compatible with a wide range of software and peripherals.
The Apple IIc featured new rear peripheral expansion ports integrated onto the main logic board, but it lacked the internal expansion slots and direct motherboard access of earlier Apple II models. Because it didn't have the expansion slots, it was a closed system like the original Macintosh. Apple intended the Apple IIc to be marketed this way — more like an appliance that was ready to use out of the box, and required less technical expertise to be able to use compared to previous Apple II models.
Technically, the Apple IIc was mostly an Apple IIe in a smaller case. The Apple IIc weighed only 7.5 lb (3.4 kg). It was succeeded by the Apple IIc Plus.
