It is really interesting to me that so many computer companies went with the pizza
box design. I know Amiga did, (the 2000 or 1000), the Atari Mega ST, and of course
the Mac II and Performas.
All collectable? I don't know about all, but I do know there are a LOT of
variants of Macs out there.

Yeh it really is. But bear in mind that the arguement goes the other way. Most
IBM based computers are backwards compatible all the way back. You might need a speed
govenor :) but they work.
