Is it just me or am I seeing these before anybody else a lot lately.......

anywayz.......

300Mhz Blueberry iBook.

Hope to get a new combo drive one but probably not anytime soon.

[Rower_CPU]

PowerBook G4 400MHz for me...

...with a 2nd on the way: PowerBook 1GHz :D

[FelixDerKater]

Apple ][+ picked up used for a pretty good price in the eighties. Now it is still being used by a charity group.

[zimv20]

Mac 512ke, 1986.

i upgraded it to 1 meg of RAM in 1987. it has no hard drive. and last i checked, maybe a year ago, the thing still works!

i got an educational discount on it, something like $1149, IIRC.

[Thanatoast]

Apple //c...I miss it.

[Chaszmyr]

It was a Performa tower! It was awesome!

[lmalave]

12.1" White iBook 800MHz

[mac15]

Indigo iMac 400mhz, it was a beast!

I miss it alot

[springscansing]

The first comp my family had was a IIe. Then they got a IIgs. Now they have 4 of em, haha. My first one that I payed for myself was a dual 450. Now i have a dual 867. Next will be a g5. :-)

[MacBandit]

Performa 600 with a 30MHz 030 and 16MB Ram and a 160MB hard drive. I had the baddest ass computer of any of my friends. Well I still do actually I now have a Dual GHz/DDR

[Gus]

The wonderful Performa 405, aka Apple LC series. It was outdated literally 2 days after I bought it when the 460 came out. Cost me $1300 with a Stylewriter II. I was pissed at the guy at WalMart. Yes, Wally World used to sell Macs. Ah, 16 Mhz of 040 power. 80 MB HD, which I never filled, and a whopping 4MB RAM.

Regards.
Gus

[thebt]

The Mac IIx from 1989, it was a high end mac at the time, with 6 Nubus slots, dual floppy drive and 8 available ram slots!
Cpu speed of 16Mhz, 1MB RAM and 40MB HD... after a few years upgraded to 8 MB RAM and 240 MB HD and a 28.8 modem to get on the internet.

Price at that time.. around 7500US$ :eek:

I dont think I'll spend that much for a mac now! :D

[superkatalog]

we first had a se/30. superfast and a big screen :D

[pianojoe]

PM 7100, 601 Power PC, 80 MHz, and a video in. It came with Avid Videoshop 3.0 software. Capturing fullscreen vid on a home computer was unthinkable at the time.

[non fiction]

It was a PowerMac 7200 in 1995 - PowerPC 601 running at 90 Mhz.

It was my first Mac and I loved it, but I was very happy to see the speed upgrade to the Beige G3 at 266 Mhz. Exactly the same case, but wow..... what a speed change. In those days Macs where getting faster at each release at a crazy rate.

I still have it in fact, which is beginning to get to me. I need another upgrade like I need oxygen, but air is free, and I will try hang on until a 5 comes after a G, or until Big Blue is under the hood.......

Do you all know of www.apple-history.com - very cool site if you want to take a walk back in apple time.

[edesignuk]

400Mhz G4 PowerMac AGP :)

[AssassinOfGates]

Macintosh LC with 2 megs of ram and a IIe card in the LC slot.

[Ambrose Chapel]

IIc...first Mac was an LCII

[dobbin]

The first Mac I used was my Dad's ||si with a whopping 5Mb RAM and 80 Mb hard drive. Then my school got a load of Mac Classics which seemed great at the time, even with their tiny little black and white screens!

My own first Mac was a Performa 6200 CDTV. I bought it 1995 and it was brilliant at the time. I still believe it is a great computer, and still ahead of many modern multimedia PCs in some resepcts. Obviously not in power and speed, but in ease of use, with its built-in TV tuner and remote control it is still unbeatable. I'd like to sell it or give it away to a good home if anyone would like it......

Now I have a G4 cube, a gorgeous computer that will see me through a few more years of computing I hope.

[gotohamish]

My dad bought the first 128k Macintosh delivered for consumer sale in the UK. With hand-written letters from Apple to accompany it. My dad had had the Lisa brochure (still have!) and wanted one for ages, but got the Mac when it was released. I was only 5 at the time, but I still remember it in it's little blue and grey carry case when we went up to Scotland and he wrote and illustrated 4 books on it.

Since 1984, we've probably bought a Mac every 18months to two years, whether for us of to use in museums we designed. (http://www.optimumdesign.co.uk)

We've touch screen modded iMacs and screwed Cubes to walls behind exhibits in a tight squeeze.

Every minute has been great, and long may it continue to do so.

We have the copy of Newsweek from 1984 where Apple took every single advert, and unfortunately just recycled most of every issue of MacWorld (US AND UK) and MacUser (US AND UK) since Issue 1. I kept about 2 dozen of the really cool ones though.

Loving it!

[xelterran]

6320 powerpc... it still works as well as when we first got it! Maby ill turn it into a lan server or something like that..

[thejll]

My first real Mac is this one... A PowerBook G4 800 with 768 MB RAM and a 40 GB HD, which I got in May.

But I purchase a Mac before this, though I don't consider it a true Macintosh purchase, since I didn't buy it to use, just as a collector's item. It's the backlit version of Apple's first battery-powered portable computer, the Macintosh Portable.

[-hh]

First Apple I used & owned was a ][+ (Motherboard Revision G; 1977).

First Mac I used was a Mac Plus w/1MB. First Mac I bought was a IIcx.

Current Mac is a 8600 with a 400MHz G4 & other mod's. Its overdue for replacement. We'll see what January brings.


-hh

[mc68k]

9600/300

i bought it to mod it, and have succeeded.
that's my first Apple. my first computer was a s900, not techically an Apple comp.

[MacUser1]

Apple ][e, still have it, too

[pgwalsh]

Macintosh Plus and I miss it. :(

First computer was and IBM PC Junior.

[BenderBot1138]

I know that the two people who voted for the Apple I know how old that Apple I is and how underpowered it must seem compared to new computers... rather than throw it out, let me know and I'll send you a fair price, say 14 or 15 dollars ;) I'll even pay for the shipping...

Who'd want a computer with the Woz's and Steve's fingerprints all over it anyways :D

:cool:

[Flickta]

LC 475. Father bought it to work, I used it to play. Well, it was so nice... Compared to any 386/486 I saw at that time... And with better design than that of the 80% of the modern **'s.

[Mac til death]

My first was a Macintosh Plus 1Mb. :) It sat on top of an Apple Crate hard drive. It still works and has a bunch of games on it.

My next computer was a Mac IIsi. (not currently working... no HD)

After that I got my first PowerMac! A PowerMac 7100/80 as a matter of fact. (same thing... no HD)

Then, at the ripe old age of 13 (late 1998), I decided that I wanted to get a Gateway PC (400 Mhz, PII). My reasoning was that every kid at my school had a PC, so I needed one too (man, I didn't know how good I had it with my 7100). I chose this over an iMac too. Anyway, after using this for about a week, I realized my mistake, but I was stuck. This was h.ell, I had to reformat my hard drive about 6 times (every 6 months Winblows 98 would slow down and become unusable.)

Now I've got a Dual-867, and there's no way I'll ever use anything other that a Mac. I don't care how wonderful another machine is hyped to be, because that's all it usually is (hype).

oh, and I'm gonna get my 7100/80 and my IIsi up and running as soon as possible. :)

as for my old PC.... where it belongs... the trash

[tpjunkie]

My first apple was and old //c...its still working, but the monitor is on its last legs, and i can't find a monitor that works with it, color or monochrome.

Then I got a Fat mac (512k). That died a while ago, i think mid nineties.

My next mac was an LCII, it has a lose clip for a SIMM chip on the motherboard, and its finicky, but you can get it to boot.

Then I got a power computing power center pro 210 -still working

Finally, I got a Dual 533 Mhz G4, which is my current desktop, and in august i got the 667 DVI Tibook.

[railthinner]

my first mac was a performa 6115cd.
here's the specs from everymac.com

The Apple Macintosh Performa 6115CD, based on the PDM (Piltdown Man) architecture, features a 60 MHz PowerPC 601 processor, 8 MB of RAM, and a 350 MB hard drive in a compact desktop case. This model also shipped with an Apple 15" color monitor and a "home office" software bundle. The business version of this model is the Power Macintosh 6100/60 and the workgroup version is the WGS 6150/60.

Yep, that's it.
Incredible--I paid more for that system than what I'm about to shell out for a screaming tibook. that's progress. really.

[drastik]

My first Mac was a 1987 Plus with 1mb of Ram, a 20 mb Apple SCSI external drive and a 1200kbs modem. Damn thing still works, I boot it up from time to time to check. Actually still gets internet service if the ISp would take such a slow modem.

Works, a screen saver called Morie, a breakout game (Brickles 1.0), man I love that old box.

If I told you how much it cost, you'd all laugh at me.

[James.Paul]

Performa 630, and it's still going strong although it's been passed down the family now and it's in the 'safe hands' of a 3 year old now. That should last all of 5 minutes. The last one she touched she thought the floppy disk drive was it's mouth so she fed it smarties. Bless her!!!!

[topicolo]

Mine was a trusty little Macintosh LC II. It's the same as the performa 405 or 410, but it only had a 40mb hard drive. I upgraded it to 10mb of ram and bought a 12" apple monitor and a Stylewriter I for about $2500US back in '92

[Geert]

My first one was an apple ][ with green/black screen.

Although I think of that generation that the IIc was a better machine.

And of the first macintosh machines the SE30 was a real beast.
I remember that the 68030 proccessor that was in there ran at 30Mhz, which was incredible for that time.
Those were the specs it was sold with, but it actually ran at lower Mhz speed, Apple released a small software app months after the release of the SE30 to make it run at the specs it was supposed to run in the first place.
(my two cents)

[oldMac]

Quadra 610

- 25Mhz 68LC040 (no fpu)
- 8 MB RAM/ 160MB Hard Drive

Sold it when I upgraded to a PM 7100/80 that I bought on discount as new machines were coming out.

Bought it with a Stylewriter II (still prints to this day, after replacing a few O-rings :)

[solvs]

Performa 6400.

My Gradfather (who's a big Mac fan) gave it to us. Used, but it worked fine. And you know what, it still works. Can't say the same for the first 3 PCs I had. And they were newer than the Mac, and used less. Since then, I've had many different computers.

Almost got a Cube after their prices went down. Wish I had. Fixed up a 6100, then a Beige G3 for my sister. Help my Mom with her 400 MHz G3 PowerBook when I go to see her. Play with my friends' (plural) iMacs. Was going to get an Education only 733 G4 or a Dual GHz QS, but lost funding for the project I was working on. Had to build a cheapy PC instead (so many problems).

So now I'll either be getting a nice new iBook in a couple of months, or a low end Tower.

We'll see what I can afford.

[TheMightyG]

My first computer EVER was a Power Macintosh 7500 back in 1995. 100 Mhz 601 processor, 1 Gig HD, 16 megs of RAM and 2megs of VRAM. Over time, I upgraded it with a 200Mhz 604E processor (cost me over 600 bucks at that time! Yikes!!!!), 1 meg of L2 cache, 192 of RAM, replaced the 4X CDROM with an Apple 24X CD-ROM, added in an 18 GIG Fast SCSI drive and maxed out my 3 PCI slots: USB card, VooDoo 3 card and an Initio Miles Fast SCSI card.

The 7500 lasted me from Summer 1995 throughto Christmas 2001 when I bought my current PB G4 667Mhz DVI.

I still have the 7500 (running OS 9.1) and am contemplating ponying up for a G4 upgrade for it.

Loved that 7500....what a tank!

[Kethoticus]

First Mac I ever bought was a IIcx back in '97. (Was my first computer ever, I was broke and just wanted a very basic machine to jump onto the internet with.) First Mac I ever used was a IIci.

The next Mac I bought was a Rev B iMac. After that was a 350MHz B&W G3, which is still my main Mac to this day. Would love to get a new machine, but don't know when I'm going to have the funds to do that. May just wait for B&W processor upgrades greater than 500MHz, supposedly due out next month.

[Performfreak]

macintosh 512k, that thing was a fun little machine. even me being a four year old kid at the time could figure out how to work it! Tons of awesome games out for it too, so much fun I barely even missed me not having a nintendo

[pimentoLoaf]

Packaged deal ($2495 circa Spring 1983):


Apple //e w/64k
80-column board
Floppy drive controller card
5.25" floppy drive
Monitor stand
Apple /// green-screen monochome monitor
2 software programs -- my choice


Only that they were out of regular 80-column boards, so I paid a bit more for an Extended 80-column board, which brought my total to 128k.

Motherboard was Rev A, but this got swapped with a Rev B a few months later for FREE!! (though the store tried to claim they didn't promise me to do it without cost). Rev A is what they gave developers in 1982, who in turn got Rev B's in 1983; when enough of the new boards came in, customers could upgrade. Why? Wirewrapping (or connecting) two li'l pins on the Extended board allowed for double-high resolution graphics (like the Apple ///; 560x192 monochrome, as I recall).

The two programs I got were AppleWriter //e and Apple Logo. By end of year I had VisiCalc Advanced Version, which was one of the few programs to make use of the full 128k of my system.

BTW, my machine still works! :D :cool:

[usersince86]

FIRST:
Macintosh 512Ke

the "e" stood for "ENHANCED". Specs:

¥ 512K RAM (not upgradeable)
¥ 800K floppy (previous ones were only 400K)
¥ No HD, no SCSI or anything else

It was a GREAT machine, and did some things you still can't in Windoze today.

SINCE THEN (in order):
¥ Performa 450
¥ SE/30
¥ IIci
¥ Supermac C500
¥ Supermac S900
¥ PowerBook Lombard
¥ Powerbook Pismo (only Mac we still have)

All USED *except* the 512Ke. We might get another NEW one once the next generation of processors is out.

[yuri_koval]

My first ever computer was IBM, but then we "Switched", when colour classic came out :)

That was my first ever switch :D

[pc2mac_convert]

The first mac I owned was a IIgs - still have it and it works perfectly - 3.5" and 5.25" floppies, 1MB RAM, Color screen, dot-matrix printer! (anybody remember that mini-golf game!?)

I've got like 6 other macs - performas i think, but I don't have any working screens for those - they were all given to me by some friends at an elementary school who bought them at an auction.

Its funny how I've gutted all the PC's I've ever owned and torn their insides apart (harddrive parts all over the place, boxes of old RAM, MFM cards, and 5.25" drives waiting to be thrown out, and my kids using the IDE cables as props for when they pretend Star Wars with their friends) while I've lovingly placed all my old Macs in my office, unadulterated, just waiting for the day when they're powered back up again!

I currently use a Pismo 400, as well as a MDD-1ghz.

[jayscheuerle]

II+, hooked up to a 13" TV.

Used to hole-punch the edges of the 5.25" floppies to make them double-sided...

Castle Wolfenstein, Wizardry, Decathalon, some Donkey-Kong rip-off with War of Independence era soldiers jumping over powder kegs....

I wrote a version of Joust for the high resolution mode (280x192 with 6 colors) and a mars lander that played the Star Wars theme when you touched down intact.

The first game I wrote with a friend was called "Shoot Steve Fallona" (someone in our class, a friend actually). It was in the low-res mode (40x48 with 16 colors). All you did was pick the weapon to shoot steve with (laser, gun, or grenade launcher) and it animated how he died.

My dad still has this machine tucked away in his attic..... - j

[Mr. Anderson]

Not a Mac but a 225 PowerComputing Power TowerPro - recently gave it to my parents.

[wdlove]

My 1st Mac was an Apple IIe, purchased in 1983. Remember the black screen with the green symbols, no icons. The antique days. Traded it in for an LC III with a color monitor, real progress.

[TheInevitable]

Performa with CD! Gave it to a guy from my church when I moved.

[jholzner]

My first was a Performa 6300CD w/15" display. I loved that computer! I bought it only 6 months after purchasing a new Packard Bell. I had nothing but problems with that hunk of crap but I was young and stupid and actually never really heard much about macs at all. Shortly after I bought my Packard Bell, my uncle bought a PowerMac 7500 (he was switching from a Packard Bell) because he had been introduced to macs at his desktop publishing job. Well, once I saw/used that I was sold. I sold my Packard Bell and bought my performa. Since then I have also owned a Beige G3 300 and now a PM G4 400. Along the way I got my dad to switch as well as my sister (who is now on her second iMac).

[rickvanr]

performa 580.. upgraded to a huge at the time 24 mb of ram from 8. 500 mb hardrive, 4x CD, 040 processor and i think 33 mhz, correct me if wrong, i was in grade five

A procedure known as "pulling flippies" :-)


Reminicing about old games, you can add the original "Lode Runner" and "Liesure Suit Larry" to the list.


FWIW, while old Apple ]['s are not Mac's, I do find it interesting to see so many mentions of them on this thread, particularly since the modern (Post-Lisa) Macintosh is nearly twenty years old. It says a lot about positive customer experiences.

-hh

[pimentoLoaf]

And most folks with A2e's still have 'em, as they still work.

[OutThere]

Quadra 800, scanner, 20 inch monitor, laser printer, caddy loader CD-ROM-good times

we still have the printer and the scanner-the printer is going bad but the scanner is as good as new!:D

[MacFan25]

My first mac is the computer that I am using to type this. It is a 17" iMac. I love it. I am sure that I will be buying macs for quite a long time.

[runningman]

First apple was a IIe payed as much for that computer then as it would cost for one now. Had the ol dot matrix printer with the ribbon on it. Remember the program that came on it with the guy that danced the jig?

[JupiterZen]

It was a Performa 400. And I used it with Cubase 1.8 (and later 2.5) to operate my little studio of one synth and one soundmodule.

A lot has changed since then ...

Me too. And the upgrade to 1MB cost 600 bucks and I had to send it to Philadelphia.

The first brand new in the box Mac I bought was an LCII, no monitor, for $1,000.00. My buddy got me a 100.00 school discount. I was ROCKIN in color! The I bought a $119.00 upgrade card that bumped it up to a whoppin' 33Mhz.
My screen re-draws went from 10 seconds to 8!

[bryng]

Hmmm...there doesn't seem to be a clear category for the original Mac Portable that I first used....

...though I much prefer my new iBook 800... ;)

[rjrufo]

My first Mac was (and still is) a TiBook G4, 400MHz. It only has a 10gig HD which I thought would be big enough, until I bought OS-X. after installing it and some of the other software I bought, I had almost eight gigs on it. I decided I didn't need OS9 anymore and removed it along with all the other OS9 only stuff. Never missed it after using OS-X.

[kiwi_the_iwik]

My first Mac was a 512KE with two 800Kb drives.

Wooo-hooo! Jet-setting stuff back in 1985...

[RndmAxess]

My first Mac was a 128K Macintosh. I bought it with an Imagewriter printer so I could print out all of those MacWrite and MacPaint files! I mainly used it with a Southworth MIDI interface and Total Music software in the earliest days of MIDI. Man, I'm feelin' a little *OLD* all of a sudden!

Had a lot of others along the way and a few still in service while on permanant loan to some friends and a church.

A good friend still uses my old IIci with 20 meg of ram, 1 Gig HD (that was HUGE when I installed it!) a 13" Apple color monitor and a B&W Stylewriter to write up estimates for his small construction biz.

[sandro]

well at the time I was out of school and not enough money to get an Apple branded computer, so lucky for me, the Mac clones were going strong, so I got me a UMAX C600 180Mhz Mac clone, later on I got me a G3 MT 266Mhz and Now I have my G4 Ti Pb 867Mhz, sorry I know the question was for my first Mac, but I just couldn't resist:D

[ozubahn]

Mac SE. 1MB ram, 20MB hard disk, and a beautiful 512 by 384 pixel black and white screen.
Say, does anyone know where I can get a carbonized version of C&G's Crystal Quest? :)

[Falleron]

Black and white classic was my first mac.

[WinterMute]

PowerBook 160, 8megs RAM 40 meg HD and a 16-greys grey-scale screen. Been portable ever since, in fact the first desktop I've ever bought was the eMac for the family...:)

[Anne]

My first mac was an old skool imac - graphite, summer of 2000. But the first one I bought with my own money is my lurvly ibook 800mhz, sitting on my lap right now.

My family was late jumping onto the computer bandwagon. It wasn't until the late 90s that we got a computer at all - it was a PC running some old unrecognizable version of windows. I used it for word processing and solitaire. It didn't suck for what I needed it for. Maybe that was because it was pre-Win95 :cool:

Never going back after my macs. I sit in class and watch people with their pc laptops rebooting in the middle of class, having battery problems, etc. My ibook has never been had to be restearted for things other than software installs that required it. My old imac hardly ever gave me any trouble. The worst it ever got was when the slot-loading got a bit tempermental. But even tech-stupid me could deal with it. I only wish I could be cool like you guys and have an old beige box to brag about. :D

[FredAkbar]

The first Mac that my family owned was a Macintosh SE with 16 MHz (we had an accelerator that brought it up to 40 MHz), 4 MB of RAM, and a 60 MB hard drive. It's currently waiting to be made into a Macquarium :) .

The first computer that I could really call my own is the one I'm using right now, a 400 MHz Blueberry iMac DV. My new flat-panel iMac is gonna be here on Tuesday though :D .

[ELYXR]

Apple IIe when I was 8 years old... still got it.

[charboneau]

90 mhz 7200. Not very pretty, not very upgradable, not very fast. Not the best choice. But I just didn't have enough money for the 7500.

[Eastend]

First one I ever owned was the Tangerine iMac 333, wanted Blueberry, but so did almost everyone else, all they had left was Tangerine and Strawberry. It was delicious for about 6 months, after that I was wanting Firewire the new thing. The iMac still runs and they use it in our office here.

Performa 578. I had early problems, but it lasted five years and the experience was a very favorable one.

It would be really interesting to re-do this poll and compare the current results to the 2002 results.Yup, there would be a ton more switchers like myself that would surely add newer 'first' machines.

12" 1.33GHz PowerBook.

[California]

Family owned an Apple II. School had Mac II (I think that's what they were, in 89/'90.

I rented (!) an SE for a few months, then purchased a Classic in '90 or '91, can't remember, so first Mac I personally purchased was a Classic.

That was my first Apple also. Purchased it in 1983. It's the one that I remember the most at the moment looking back. Wished that I had kept it now, as usual hindsight is 20/20.

[MacVM]

My ibook that I got in August...

[puckhead193]

an LC we had the style writer printer and the cd-rom...man i miss those caddies. i would take a caddy over a slot load drive any day :rolleyes:

[ReanimationLP]

Power Macintosh G3 300 Beige. Used the Beige for a little bit, then I got my Blue and White. Didnt like the Beige too much, too slow of video.

[Kernow]

G4 iMac flat panel flexi-neck thingummy.

Was seriously considering buying a pc but accidently stumbled onto the Apple website and was amazed by how good the computers looked. 3 Macs later and I haven't looked back once.

[Renegate]

Apple II kit from the US, reselling these to the university later

[MnMacer]

Got the original Bondi Blue 233MHz iMac when it first came out. Just updated to a 2Ghz G5 iMac this summer.
Still got the old one. Works fine if a tad slow. My daughter has ownership now.

[iGary]

Power Mac G4 450MHz.

[mcadam]

The first one that belonged solely to me was a Performa 630. And, yeewww, it looks like a pc when I see it now, hehe. But I was very thrilled about it, big colorscreen and all. Untill then my family had a macintosh plus and an SE/30 at that point. Today they are clearly design-classics, but they do have some very small black and white screens.

About 3 or 4 months before that I bought an iBook G4 12" 800MHz for one of my kids though.

[Chacala_Nayarit]

What the hell, my second Mac: 667MHz PowerBook G4 for the low price of 2,400.00! Cheap....:D

[SummerBreeze]

My parents bought a mac (powermac?) in 1995, it cost them five grand once they added on the ink-jet printer and scanner. I had Graphite G3 iMac, it was an amazing computer and quite a conversation starter, I still turn it on every once in awhile.

[Macmaniac]

First family owned mac was a Performa 6300CD with a 15in display. That computer lasted forever, it sits in our kitchen and still works!
The first mac I ever owned was what I am using now, a 15in 1.67ghz Powerbook G4. I love it:)

I have a 6200 and a 6320. I use the 6320 as a TV recorder now :) not high quality stuff, but It will compress well for an iPod screen :)


The First Macintosh I have owned was an SE (still have it). It was given to me free, one 3 comptuers given to me :)

Parents had an Apple II.

I worked on a Mac II at school

Then I rented (!) a Mac SE

until I could afford a Mac Classic in, I think, 1991.

[Marky_Mark]

First owned a PowerBook Duo 210 (1992), although the first Mac I used (in the college computer suite) was a Mac Plus.

I remember I had to get a bank loan out to buy the Duo and a copy of MS Office because they cost so much. I still have it, and aside from the battery, which has long since lost its ability to hold a charge, the Duo works perfectly well and still boots into System 7.1.2 quite happily when I get nostalgic about old games. Testament to Apple's enduring build quality.

First I OWNED was a PowerBook 5300c. First that was effectively mine was a Macintosh SE (dual floppy.) First I purchased with my own money was also a Macintosh SE (much later.) As my .sig shows, I have quite a collection now. (I drifted away from the Mac in the early-mid '90s, but came back again in '99 as a collector of old Macs, and then in 2003 as my 'primary' computer.)

[snowprof]

i had a 128k mac, external disk drive, imagewriter printer-- one of the first. i think in 1984, and the whole thing cost about $2,500! since then, i have owned just about one of every model.

[nborders]

Mac Classic II

I still have it. Sucker was a powerhorse. Got me through college.

Apple //gs was my very first Apple computer, though around the same time I recall having an Apple //e. Before my sister was born her bedroom was our computer room and I recall my dad having a few computers on his desk and then there was another desk with the Apple //e and //gs that my brother and I shared. This is just going back in my mind and from what my dad has told me. I remember parts and pieces of it, but I was just a young mate.

[amemoryoncelost]

My first one and still current machine is a dual 800 powermac G4, the quicksilver one or whatever. I like it, but as soon as I can get my hands on a DVX100s, I'll be going to soemthing like a DP 2.5 G5....

[liquidh2o]

867mhz quicksilver G4. I didn't feel the whole apple experience back then, not sure if it was due to how sluggish OSX felt, or if I just wasn't looking for simplicity back then.

Now on a Dual 1.8ghz G5, perfectly happy with it and no reservations about not using a PC :)

[doucy2]

well i use old color mac with big floppy drives in school (grade school)

Aaaahhh....

I remember them fondly.

First Apple I used was the Apple IIe. Logo in color? WOW!

Followed by the Apple IIc.

My buddy had a IIgs, which really blew us all away.

First own I actually owned was a Mac Plus (512k Floppy Drive, Whoohoo!)

Later that was replaced with a Mac SE.
"A 20Mb hard drive and 1Mb of RAM. Are you serious?! That must kick @$$!"

It did, still does, although the screen is about to give out.

An Apple //e with the green monochrome screen was the first Apple my family bought. It had a duo-floppy drives and an ImageWriter. Despite all fears, notching the back of single sided disks, never wore out the drive or the disks.

Apple //c with monochrome monitor (which was tiny and had a strange stand)

then Mac 512
then Mac plus

then I got owned by microsoft, badly, until Feb this year when I placed an order for two MacBook Pro's (one for wife).

I'm converting back to the good oil.

I got my Apple //c when I was just a little tike, in grade 4 of school I think. I must have been about 9 yrs old or so.

I was the only kid in school handing in typed/printed homework/stories, etc. I had a dodgey 'brother' 9pin dot matrix printer connected to it, which rarely worked perfectly... and dont even get me started about the ultra cool games I had for the machine, if I could only remember the names... one was like Treasure Cove, or Treasure Island or pirate adventure or something.. hrmmmm

That actually sounds a little low to me... I remember in 1995 paying $500 for 16 MB of RAM. (Or was it both 16 MB modules for $500.... Now I'm not sure. I know I paid $500 for a 540 MB hard drive, too; and remember thinking how amazing it was that storage was less than $1/megabyte.)

[galstaph]

The first apple I purchased (acting as a proxy) was a 1ghz 15" powerbook for my brother (got him the edu discount) then i got my iBook 1.33Ghz

the first one I used was an apple //c that my school had back in gr. 7, then a mac classic then I remember in gr. 8 we got brand new lc's (not sure if they were I or II)... had fun with those ones.... they even ran windows if I recall:D
played simcity 2000 in class, made aliases of the hd got threatened to be suspended... good times.....good times....

ahhh for the days of yore... when you had 320kb of ram and it was good.... 20mb hds ruled, and you still could play games.....

[ethen]

mac mini was the first one i bought for my wife, and then my partner at work bought me a powerbook, and also g5, now i'm a happy camper and bought my wife an intel imac

Powermac G5

Made the switch to Apple last year and have been fairly pleased except for that videocards for Mac's are so much more exspensive :/

[Bosunsfate]

Apple II (e or c?) what I remember most was the black screen with green characters.....that kooky sound when the floopy disk was read.....and trying to get out of the house playing The Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy. The fact that I was 9 years old and nothing to do with with how much I sucked at that game....

Then it was a long twenty years before I left the MS world and got my first iMac G3.

[masterjedi73]

I had a Mac Classic (BW) around 1993 or so. Then I switched to Windows in 1996-7 and used those beasts until I got my powermac G5 two years ago.

thank god for macs.

I've never actually owned a mac, but over the years I always have one under my possesion for some amount of time. The SE/30 was my first. Actually it might have been the SE. I'm not sure now. Anyway. Yeah.

[princealfie]

Tangy iBook 300mhz Rev. B which I bought from my friend for 25 dollars. Upgraded it recently and I use it now to watch DVD rips.

My first Mac was an LCII which I used from 92 to 97 at which point I switched to a slightly beefier LC III.

[aquajet]

My father purchased a new Mac SE in 1989. That was the first Mac I ever used. I eventually saved enough money and purchased my own Mac Plus for $75 at a company auction in 1992 (which was quite cheap at the time). I eventually sold it at a consignment shop two years later for $395. :eek: Imagine that.

Apple IIc for me: the first portable by Apple.

I can remember hours of game time in from of Zork, Ultima, Ironsides, Choplifter, Curse of Ra, Strip Poker... those were the days, hooking up the pc to a TV to get color instead of the green screen.

I used it until 1989 and then sold it in 1992; from what I heard it was still working last year (but I don't know whether that is possible)

[Stinkysteve]

My first Mac was a Performa 6250 CD, (it was given to me 6 years ago). It still works, (OS 8.6), and I finally installed the TV Tuner Card I picked up from eBay a few years ago, (still have not tried out the card because I cancelled the cable at my apartment).

Since then I have purchased 4 other Macs, (new and used).

[Caitlyn]

This here 12" iBook G4. Bought it stock and later added an extra 1GB of RAM. :)

My first Mac was a Performa 630 (http://www.apple-history.com/?page=gallery&model=630&performa=on&sort=date&order=ASC) bought in 1994. This was my first "real" computer. Before it I only ever had a Laser 200 (http://www.old-computers.com/museum/computer.asp?c=155) and an Amiga 500 (http://www.old-computers.com/museum/computer.asp?st=1&c=65).

[Shotglass]

The one I'm sitting in front of. Mac mini G4. Got it in October 2005. Best computer I've ever used.

[taytho]

i too am sitting in front of my first mac. iBook G4 in August of last year. It is ridiculous how much i enjoy this computer.

[thewhitehart]

I'm quite a recent convert - I've only owned a mac since the last G4 ibook. Although I do think I used System 8 in school, besides the really old Apple ][ s for playing games. Now I'm mac obsessed!

[atiffarooq]

I'm currently being converted. Ordered my very first Mac last Friday (Macbook) and can't wait to take delivery (hopefully next week!).

[Cowinacape]

233mhz Rev B Bondi iMac, that I upgraded to 320 mg ram, 60 gig HDD, and a SCSI card/tv tuner, with a lacie scsi CDRW drive, welcome to the world of Macintosh, changed me forever :D

[Cross]

Powerbook 145B then a Powerbook 5300cs.

After that its a long line of every model Powerbook up to the last model Ti G4 (I have owned one of every model of the Ti Series though :p still have my 867 Tibook). The only models in between the 5300 to the Ti G4 I have not owned were the Kanga and the Lombard. No wait I did have a Lombard for a day then sold it for 500.00 I forgot about that.

[wmmk]

mac mini G4. the one in my profile.

[Stu-Duncan]

New keyboard, but it still works. Shame the White iBook G3's weren't as reliable!

Currently Powerbook G4 12" 1GHz and a trusty Newton 2100 (plus 2nd user Powerbook 3400c, to transfer information!)

Powerbook Wallstreet G3 233 13.3
Powerbook Pismo 500 (First Brand New Laptop I ever bought)
Powerbook 3400 2XX I forgot the exact speed
iBook 500Mhz
Powerbook G4 Ti Book 550
Powerbook Wallstreet w/G4 Upgrade
Powerbook Pismo 500
iBook G4 14" when they first came out
Powerbook G4 800Mhz Ti
2 Powerbook Wallstreet 300's that were supposed to be used to make a new Powerbook G4 with swappable drives.... yeah that still has not happened they are both still sitting here in service lol.
And now a Powerbook G4 Ti 867 and a Powerbook G4 800 that i am finishing.

I know I have forgot a few systems in between because I have been through over 80 windows and mac laptops but still my Pismo is my favorite design. I almost went for the MacBook Black until i saw shared graphics. So evil.
