I remember seeing an ad for the 4x200 mhz system on the back page of a MacMall catalog and nearly falling off my chair. At the time we had a LCII, with 25 MHz and a maxed out 8mb ram. The thought of a eight hundred MHz was incredibly astounding— few things ha e matched that level of astonishment since.

The LCII had 2MB on the motherboard and could take 2x4MB sticks but could only address 10MB. It was also 16Mhz on a slow 16 bit bus.

The LCIII had a 25Mhz processor and a 32 bit bus.
