That may have been the first Mac we got at work, in spring of 1986. I wish I had been paying more attention to the details, but I was focused on getting familiar with it and PageMaker 1.5, and dealing with the quirks of the Linotronic RIP and insanely finicky processing unit. We had to get an external floppy drive for it. Before we got the second floppy drive, it would take a minute or longer just to go to a different page in a Pagemaker document.
My employers didn’t think any training was needed, so I had a week to get everything figured out enough to start cranking out work.
I wish I knew the specs of the Mac, and what OS it came with. According to Low End Mac, it shipped with System 3.2. I remember going to a nearby computer store to pick up a system upgrade.
We got an SE within a couple years, and then a Mac II.
