For the Mac-heads among us! :)
NPR had an interesting talk about the 20th Anniversary of the Mac that is worth listening to. For those of you that missed it you can go here on the NPR web site and check it out.

Wow … I haven’t seen one of those old Macs since grade school. Seeing one always reminds me of old re-runs of Seinfeld. In the early episodes you could always catch a peak at one sitting on a table in the corner of Jerry’s apt.

Well, I listened to the NPR thing and it was MADDENING to listen to that PC Mag guy rattle on and on about the drawbacks of the Mac. People still don’t seem to understand that you can do pretty much everything on a Mac that you can on a PC, except deal with corrupt .dll files. Gosh do I miss those days- not.

OMG, I used one of those when I was in college. I’ve seen them used as chachkas now. I’m thinking that my imac will suffer the same fate in a few years. It’s the pre-lamp era of imacs.
