Any 5200 (the 75mhz version is definitely the worst Macintosh ever made). Any 5300 (both the desktop and the PowerBook). Any 6200. Any 6300 except the 6360. Any 7200 except the 7220. The original Mac LC. The original Mac LC's successor, the LC II. Any PowerBook 190. Come to think of it, any PowerBook 100 series. The PowerBook 520. The 117mhz PowerBook 1400 (unless you plan to put a G3 in).
