macintosh IIcx, IIci, IIsi, IIvx, IIvi

Half a year after release of the macintosh IIx the macintosh IIcx introduced with same performance in 1989 . The design was made much more compact by reducing the number of nubus slots from 6 to 3. The new case, apple's first to be designed to operate in either horizontal or vertical orientation, remained in use for its successors the IIci and quadra 700.

The mac IIci was a faster version of the IIcx, and one of the more popular macs ever. It was the first mac to have built in color video circuitry, and the first mac with 32-bit clean ROMs.

The IIsi came 1990 in a streamlined case used only for this model. It was originally designed for a 25 MHz 68030 processor, but shipped at 20 MHz, so it wouldn't compete with the IIci.

The IIvx introduced 1992 in a new case design (the first case built with an internal CD-ROM in mind), and ran on a 32 MHz 68030 processor with a 68882 FPU. The IIvi was exactly the same as the IIvx, but with a 16 MHz 68030 processor, and no FPU.
