The 1st Mac You Ever Used

The first mac I ever used was in high school when I was a freshman. We had one of these babys:



It had some version of OS X on it, and I thought it was pretty cool, and really easy to use, with the exception of that darn puck mouse =) This is the mac that made me purchase my beloved macbook <3

my dad bought one of these in the mid 80s. used the paint program a few times, maight have written a paper or two on it.

I used the same one when I was in 1st grade. My mom got one for her birthday and we still have it today. But it's way past it's playing days!

One of these, A Mac Plus with 4 Megs RAM. In fact this very Mac as it's still set up here and working perfectly!

Wow! What is that thing next to it? lol

I believe it was a Mac LC in Jr. High School:



Prior to that we had the Apple IIe and IIgs.

Heathkit VFO (Variable Frequency Oscillator) used in Ham Radio in place of Crystals to select the frequency you transmit on.

I figured someone would ask!

The first Apple computer was an Apple ][ plus, then original Macintosh.

some Quadra... running OS 7

man that was painful

I was a live-in nanny for a family who were Windows haters. They had what looked like the PowerMac 5500, was that mid-90s?

I used to use these when I was in grade 2-5.. Then in grade 6 we got "cutting-edge" Pentium systems with Windows 95.

Since the Title of this thread really is "What is the first Mac you ever used", I will have to say a Lisa. A friends dad bought one. I loved it. Then he sold it and bought a Plus. Got to use that also, and was so impressed I bought my own.

When I was in second grade my dad came to my school and showed everyone in my class the brand new Apple 2e. That seems like eons ago!

Apple IIe with the color composite monitor and the Style writer printer LOL!!!!

A mac SE.

I used those in middle school. I used to love playing with paint on them and messing with the fonts and some color feature on them. We were suppose to be writing papers on them. haha

My parents had an old Packard Bell when I was a kid. It had the black floppy disks that were actually floppy and a monitor that displayed only a few colors. Good times!!

An old educational Mac at school, G3 CPU I think.
