[rescue] Apple Stuff. . .

[Fogg, James]

I have been collecting mostly 68020/68030 stuff, but have been lusting after
OS/X. I am wanting of a toilet seat (original Ibook), a TAM and a G4 cube
(tissue dispenser) with cinema display.

BTW... many pieces of old software and OS's are still available for free. I
have most of my original MAC's running something usefull in the user
software realm.

I really should join macweenies.

~ Gents,
~ 
~ 1. I agree with everyone that I am envious of Ken's Ti! <grin>
~ 
~ 2. I have an i(ce)Book, a 500 w/320 meg of memory, and it 
~ runs OSX like 
~ a champ, is plenty quick enough for me, and chicks go for it. 
~ I coworker 
~ has a Ti, and our shared opinion is that the speed and screen 
~ of the Ti 
~ is great, but the size and convenience of the iBook is a very 
~ mitigating 
~ factor. He admits for most daily tasks, the iBook would suit. 
~ However, 
~ that screen is a killer. Plus- I get approx 30-50% better 
~ Airport range 
~ with my iBook than he does with the Ti-cladding.  .  .
~ 
~ 3. I can't top Pete's collection of cool hardware, but about 
~ two weeks 
~ ago I picked up an original Mac "Portable". 16 pounds of luggable Mac 
~ goodness! That's my entry into the "anti-Libretto" sweepstakes!
~ 
~ Welcome to MacLand, Ken. Fire up OSX as quick as you can. You'll see 
~ what "desktop UNIX" should be!

~ 
~ P.S. and when you get tired of that Libretto, you let me know! <grin>
