So a Motorola 68030, which was a workstation-class processor to Sun and Apollo:

> It was also used in Unix workstations such as the Sun Microsystems Sun-3x line of desktop workstations (the earlier "sun3" used a 68020), Apollo Computer's DN3500 and DN4500 workstations
Also, the original Macintosh II used the 68020
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macintosh_II
which was still workstation-class:

> The 68020 was used in the Apple Macintosh II and Macintosh LC personal computers, Sun-3 workstations, Amiga 1200 (68EC020 variant), the Hewlett-Packard 8711 Series Network Analyzers, HP 9000/320, HP 9000/330, Apollo Computer's DN3000 and DN4000 workstations,[19] and the Alpha Microsystems AM-2000.

Same as a MacⅡx, but they wisely avoided calling it the SE/x.

#5OMG! I loved this update to Doom. This had the 4th episode called Thy Flesh Consumed, which consisted of 9 new levels that were super difficult compared to the original release of the first 3 episodes. If you guys remember Ultimate Doom introduced the 200% health and armor and the crazy Nightmare level. Anyways thanks for this haha, just reminiscing on a favorite game of mine. Sorry I dont have a compact mac from the 80s though but interesting vid haha

The SE/30 debuted at $4,300 ($10,000 today). It was upgradable to 128 MB of RAM and could run Mac OS 8.1 with the 32-bit clean ROM update. The machine was definitely a workstation in its day. An absolute beast and much beloved in vintage Mac groups today!

The '030 was also used in the Amiga 2500/30 and Amiga 3000 (my favorite system from the 90's.)
