Hi all,

Well I saw the thread "First and Last visit to an apple store" and assumed it was about what was the 1st product you bought from apple and what was the last apple product you bought. As it turned out it wasn't so I thought I would start this thread:

So what was the last thing Apple product you bought?
And what was the 1st??

I haven't got anything yet (waiting for this god**** check to clear!) but when I do my first purchase will be:

12" iBook 1.2GHz Combo with a 80GB HD and 512MB of SDRAM with Bluetooth module and Office for Mac and a Wireless Apple Mouse.

So what did you get last and what was your first??

My first was a Performa 6116CD with a zooming 60MHZ PPC601 processor and 14 inch CRT monitor with built in speakers. It was awsome... for the early-mid 90's.

My most recent purchase from apple was panther (not for the performa) ;-)

My first was an Analog to Digital video converter from ACD (iirc). Works like a charm :)

From the retail store?

1st: iMic (IIRC)
Last: 12" 1Ghz PowerBook

I also helped get a Mac Mini for my niece, and got the free Epson Stylus C86 printer deal (after rebate) out of it. :)

I have yet to buy anything from an Apple retail store. The nearest one is about two hours away. I just order everything online.

My first and last purchase at the Apple Store was Airport Express. I've only been to the Apple Store once, since the Apple Store is 1 hour (traffic permitting) from my house and the other is 2 hours away. :(

My first Apple was an Apple ][ Plus, 1 disk drive, no hard drive. It looked like the attachment, although this one's in the Smithsonian.

My next Mac comes tomorrow. A new iMac G5 17".
