Re: iMac refurb as an independent business opportunity?
That would have been the much later Tandy line of PC-compatibles. Windows never ran on the CoCo. You are correct, sir! By the time Bill was touting the wonders of the Tandy computer, Tandy no longer made computers, they merely assembled them from parts. They velcro'd 4 bits together into a nibble and epoxied them together in pairs. If you tell that to kids today, they won't believe you! :D -- Malcolm 800MHz 17" flat panel iMac running Leopard (1GB RAM, 500GB HD) -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.

Re: iMac refurb as an independent business opportunity?
I wonder how fast WE are... back in 1993, when I first started learning about computers (before I had one) I saw a program which, in one scene, had a cartoon of a big rock sitting on a chair in front of a computer and the narrator was describing how TO A COMPUTER (of the day, of course), EACH KEYSTROKE a human would make would seem like SEVEN YEARS!

Seems as though the OS got messed up, I would try a reinstall and see if that helps. Also, i have one of these just like yours but its 400MHz instead. -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.
