I was starting to wonder... with the number of recent switchers at the forum, how many others are there like me? Who else has memories of their first PCI Power Macintosh with System 7.5.5? Who else remembers eagerly tearing the shrinkwrap off of OS 8.5 and feeling like it was an amazing new world when installing it on a slate gray Powerbook? Who else remembers the Apple Extended Keyboard? The SE/30? The Color Classic? <3
I still have a lot of the Macs from when I was a kid!
Our original Macintosh 512KE with Dove SCSI card and 1MB RAM upgrade
A non-working SE/30 with 80MB hard disk
A Quadra 840AV with 128MB of RAM
A Power Mac 7200/120 that my dad used
My mom's Power Mac 6500/250
My Powerbook 3400/180 from high school
It really, honestly is fun to look back at what Apple used to be and remember the good times. I think they make the good times I have now even more special.
I just wish that a lot of the recent switchers could have known that joy!
