Show changes

Josh: Apple Service Source: case width and depth were transposed across this family (Apple: 16.5 in W x 12.6 in D); sound input is 16-bit MONO - the port accepts stereo but combines it - with 16-bit stereo output; added Apple's electrical figures, 256K standard L2, slot pinouts, and the 4.5 V battery pack with its 3.0 V replace-below threshold; noted the two errors in Apple's own text
