We are trying to set up a vintage mac trivia to put on my web page and need some serious help! Thanks for whatever help you can provide. now this one i did figure out... i think i decided it must be a Powerbook 170, because they were raving about the 'active matrix' screen and it was the first to have one.... i'm new to this tho, so the expert 'spotters' might like to disagree with me ;-) i'd need to check the modem too, apparently in the movie it had a 28.8 modem from what i remember (will have to go watch my copy of Hackers again :-)... did the PB 170 support 28.8?... another interesting thing to note in 'Hackers' is that the good guys, the hackers, use macs, and the bad guys use PCs!!! there are several macs on this, the ones i'm trying to figure out are Zero cool's home computer, and the Phreak's computer.... the hacking scene in Central Station uses *tons* of original Powerbooks too :)... m~ -- iriXx www.iriXx.org copyleft: creativity, technology and freedom?
