Macintosh conversion

This places the commercial production of a Mac conversion under the protection of the first-sale doctrine in the U.S. and similar legal concepts in most other countries.

Apple's 1986 agreement to sell Macintosh computers to Dynamac at a discounted price indicated the former's approval of the latter company's conversions.

Apple only sold complete computers for conversion, refusing to sell individual components such as motherboards.
