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

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

Re: [MBZ] old macs

2013-10-27 Thread Peter Frederick
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.

I remember when the II fx was all the rage! The only one I ever saw was in a 
graphic design studio in Camden, Maine back in the early nineties.
