The Macintosh computer has revolutionized the computer industry with it’s strong points in user-friendliness and powerhouse software. My eyes are always wandering but lack of space is sometimes a blessing. These days I have 3 old Macs to get my fix (not including the stacks of more recent Apple stuff, including the machine I'm typing on right now): an unbearably gorgeous Qudara 700 40Mhz running System 7.5, an iMac 'Ruby' (my original) running 9.2, and a fully maxed out G3 Powerbook 'Pismo' also running 9.2. I later got my very own first Mac in 1999/2000 with the introduction of the beautifully colored iMacs. I also used more powerful (and to me, mysterious) beige Macintoshes in art school in the mid-90s. My high school had black and white Macintoshes, which I used for class. But that other 10% is a very proud pre-OS X collection of machines and software. Ninety percent of my collection consists entirely of C64/128/Amiga hardware and software. The Emplant Mac emulation card, designed by Jim Drew in 1992.ĭoug knows that I'm a big fan of classic Macs, much to his chagrin.
