No. The Apple II predated the Macintosh by several years.
as an upgrade to the Apple II to appeal to the mass market instead of just geeks
When IBM took over the market in personal computer from Apple, Apple developed the Macintosh. The Macintosh sported a new 3-inch disk drive that was faster than the 5-inch drives used in other machines, including the Apple II. Apple sold 70,000 Macintosh computers in the first 100 days.

Well, Mac is part of Apple. Including the Power Mac, eMac and iMac, and the MacBook series, there have been less than ten products with only the 'Mac' abbreviated form of Macintosh.Including all the various 'Macintosh' products such as Power Macintosh, Macintosh Centris, Macintosh Classic, Macintosh II, and Macintosh Portable, there are more than twenty products.
RAM Based Video on the Macintosh II computer allowed Apple to save money in manufacturing by emulating a VIA graphics card with processor memory.
The original 1977 Apple II had a MOS Technology 6502 microprocessor running at 1 MHz.
Before the Macintosh (1984) Apple made the Apple I (1976 - 1977), Apple II series (1977 - 1993), Apple III (1980 - 1984) and the Apple Lisa (1983 - 1986). The Apple II remained their best seller even after the launch of the Macintosh which took a few years to finally become their primary computer. The Lisa was re-branded as the Macintosh XL in 1986 and was sold as a top end Mac model.
Well, there were many old apple computers. By old, I'm assuming that you mean not current. Let's see, there are a lot of them.

He invented APPLE I in about 1976, and invented the APPLE II in late 1976. The Name "APPLE" was based on a friends Apple farm that he worked on. Him and Wozniac created APPLE I and APPLE II. Apple really got serious in 1983, With its "Snow white look" and its "Tight round curves".
The original Apple I computer was a system board (no case, no keyboard, no video display) that was sold to home computer hobbyists for $666. The Apple II, Apple III, Apple Lisa, and Apple Macintosh followed.
Apples first operating system was Apple DOS 3.1 for the Apple II in 1978. Versions 1 and 2 were internal testing versions and were not made available to the public. They developed Apple SOS (Sophisticated Operating System) for the Apple III in 1980. Parts of the SOS were used in the Lisa's operating system which in turn would lead to the Macintosh Operating System. The first operating system for the Macintosh came out in 1984, with the release of the first Macintosh. This was known as "System 1.0". The current series of system software, Mac OS X, was released in 1999 for servers, and 2001 for desktops.
