When my elder son was a little boy, one of his favourite books at 
bedtime was about a truck called old mac.

I still have an old Mac II fx, which I got simply because it was cheap  
(surplus from my neighbor's work) and cost $10,000 new.  Works fine so  
far as I know, we used it to do the newsletter for the homebrew club  
for years until the monitor blew.  Pretty spiff for 1990:  40 MHz  
Motorola 68000 something chip, 24 MB Ram (in the days when a PC could  
only use a couple MB without drastic expense or gyrations), super VGA  
monitor.


Probably still works, but I don't have room to run it just for fun, it  
sits on the shelf in the basement next to my HyType II printer that  
quit in 1990.

Well, my current Mac Mini is a Core Duo, so it's pretty up to date.  Even
have two screens running on it. :)

I still have an imac g-3 under power  i mostly use it for some old  
files that i print occasionally that are in pagemaker  for some  
reason the pagemaker won't make .pdf  files of them


we have a couple or maybe 3 floating screen imacs (g-4) hooked up to a  
film scanner and around the office


most of the real work is done on a pair of macbook core 2 duo machines

on the road i use a macbook and an ipad  with 3g (one of the original  
ones which are WAY cheap now and pretty great)

thanks,
