Amazing. I still have my old Plus with an Apple 20MB External SCSI Hard Drive. Still works as good as the day it was made. I have used it with Eudora and an old copy of AIM to chat and get my email. Amazing little machine for it's time.

Thanks Baggss for that one!!

That's just amazing. It just goes to show newer in some respects isn't always better.

that was fun to read.

i would like to see a similar comparison using whatever MS OS had at the time on a simliar machine. also what is the comparison of today's OSX on Core2Duo running similar stuff to the MacPlus? that would be a better comparison in my mind rather than still trying the age old Mac Vs. Windows tagline, however phrased.

but still, that was interesting to see what had bloated all new OS's compared to the simple code that used to be run!

From a G4 400MHz to an Intel Mac Mini to iMac Core Duo to a Macbook Pro 2.6GHz.............gotta love Apple!
