To make a Mac, I'm using a Pi Zero 2 W, a Waveshare 2.8" DPI LCD, and the MacintoshPi image which includes Basillisk II and SheepShaver already installed, and they work without X11 running, perfect for the thin-resourced Pi Zero.

One thing that was missing was AppleTalk support but I solved that by installing sheep_net from these instructions. And works over WiFi!
