An original Macintosh, still working fine.

 

Considering buying MacBook or MBP, depending on the MB specs.

(I´m not going to use it for very demanding tasks anyway, for that i have my Desktop)

I've never owned a Mac in my life, but I plan on eventually getting a Mac Book Pro to replace my current laptop for various reasons. After seeing OSX in action, I fell in love with it after about 5 minutes. Down with Windows! Onward with Mac! :hysterical:

Consume, Consume, Consume, Consume, Consume, Consume, Suck corporate c*ck, die.

 

Powrbook G4 667 big widescreen one, falling to bits, was a gift a couple of months ago.

 

RANT WARNING:-

 

I will never buy one. I may at some point in the future run osx on a pc, without paying for it.I have never paid for any operating system, and if i had the balls, i would steal the hardware from capitalistic shops (YOMANGO!). Oh yeah, I couldn't give a monkeys what colour a souless piece of electronics is. I am sick of people who are totally brainwashed into loving Apple, or any other corporation.

 

RANT OVER.

I have a Quadra somewhere, and a PPC 601-based PowerMac (cant remember the model - its at my folks), and an Apple II with two floppy drives (ok ok its not a mac - sosumi).

 

In terms of working machines, I have a PowerBook G4 and a Mactel (see sig for specs)

The machine I used to fall in love with Mac OS X:

 

A semi-ancient Powermac G3, 384 Mb RAM. Bare minimum requirements to run OS X, heckuva slow machine, but it worked ;).

 

Also a truly ancient Macintosh Plus, my first real computer. Recently blew its CRT, but I'm hoping to fix it if it's possible... eventually.

2002 iMac G4 700 (yes, the original 'table lamp' one). The most beautiful computer IMO. pumped to the max with 160 GB IDE drive and 1 GB of RAM. Serves as DVD-, MP3-, MPEG- station with front row in my bedroom. For the serious work I use x86 =) (AMD *cough*) ;)

I've Had Many - Heres a Partial List!

 

Lets see - AppleII, Apple II+, Apple IIe, 512 Mac, Mac+, MacSE, IIsi, IIci, Quadra, Powerbook 140, Powerbook 180, Powerbook 280, 7200, 7600, 9600, iMacs of various configs, G3 AIO, G3 Desktop, Powerbook Lombard, Digital Audio, Quicksilver and a OSx86 pc box that runs XP/OSx86/Ubuntu Dapper. I have also had many PCs too.

 

Of all of them I prefer a real Mac - even when I had much faster PCs I still usually used a slower Mac as my main box. I do like my OSx86 PC box though I'll probably wait a year or so and see what Apple will do with the Intel Macs and software wise for PCs. :blink:

I've got a Power Mac G5 Dual 2Ghz. Was my first Mac. When I bought it I basically gave my new Dual 2.4Ghz Xeon box to the ex-wife (don't ask) :angry: So, last week I finally got her to buy a Mac (Mini) so I don't have to deal with her virus infested Windows OS anymore and I got my Dual Xeon back. It's running OSx86 beautifully!

Blew a fortune in Macs, way too numerous to count. The most recent ones I own/owned: iMac G5 1.6GHz, 12" iBook G4 1.33GHz, G4 Cube (now upgraded to the hilt), 15" PowerBook 1.5GHz. I only keep one, the Cube. It's bar none the best designed PowerMac ever to come out of Apple. Too bad Apple ditched the upgrade-friendly concept and went with the lamp-Mac and later, the TV box (Mac Mini).

 

In the future you will see a documentary that tells of a city-wide pile of closed box mini Macs and undetachable iMac screens, all rotting away under an ominous dark sky.
