i thought they took that down, but I'm sure you can find it online

and the ROMs are easy to find too, I don't think Apple ever cared except for the short period of time when people were making/selling unofficial clones

"dialup" could be one of many possible speeds you know. in 1995 most people probably had a 14.4 modem or maybe a 28.8 if they were ballin, 56k wasn't around until 98 or so

cargo generates money based on distance - you find the longest, easiest route within a comfortable budget, not the absolute shortest

I still have my blue & white G3 tower so I can sort of do this.

I'm not hardcore enough to set up an old lc with system 6.0.8 on it like I used in middle school tho
