I have a 4-year-old first-gen Intel iMac that I ONLY got because the

still use as our Mac test machine as my main desktop.
The local U has budget concerns but I know a dept with Mac/PC . The IT
head that replaced his Quicksilver with an old cast off Mac Pro. He
also wears a rakish straw cowboy hat every day. Perks of the job.
We manage all computer surplusing for the College. The newest Mac
that's *ever* come through here was a 400 MHz Sawtooth with no drive,
memory or power supply. If a prof decides to get a newer Mac it goes
to a student or instrument in their lab.
