Hello Beth,

The camera was called the "Quicktake". I remember them well, as they  
were the start of digital photography (Canon and NIkon and the others  
got into this end of it after Apple showed it was possible to make $  
at it).

The format is the older pict format that Apple used for graphics (it  
still sees some limited use!). If you can find the QuickTake app ,  
oops, that should be "program" that came with the camera it will let  
you export to other formats.

Photoshop or Graphics convertor or just about any graphics editor may  
be able to open them using the pict-based formats.

Someday, I will come up with a clever signature line. I am not sure  
if I will use it or not, but I will come up with one.
