Update Published December 12, 2025

Every Apple Mac that uses a 68020 processor -- also called a 68020 CPU (Central Processing Unit) -- is listed below.

Apple first released Macs that use the 68020 processor in 1987 and continued to sell Macs that use this processor until 1992. The 68020 processor only was used twice, once in the Macintosh II as a high-end processor and then again with the Macintosh LC -- LC stands for "Low Cost" -- as an entry-level processor years later.
