[mogzieee]

Just one MacBook Pro myself. I switched last summer, after about 2 years of pondering whether or not to.

But I plan on buying many more Mac's in the future.... Probably (when they get released in next refresh) a Mac Mini and a 20"/24" Cinema Display, for university. After a few years when I have the money, upgrade the Mac mini to a Mac Pro where I can do some powerful video/photo/web editing stuff after Uni.

Although I have an iPod touch and a iPod shuffle... do they count??

[Victor ch]

1. Several Performa's and PowerPC's (i'll say about 3 or 4) during my infancy.
2. 12" 1.33Ghz PowerBook G4 (loved it to bits...) named "Chipy"
3. 2GHz Core 2 Duo Black MacBook (hate it, now its moms) no name.
4. 2.4GHz Unibody MacBook (love it to bits) named "Chipy+"

4. powerbook g4 12inch
5. black macbook

[Taegre]

Ooo, boy. Let me think:

Desktops:
1. MacPlus (First computer of the household, b/w, played a hell of a lot of tetris)
2. 2fx (My brothers, the first with internet)
3. G3 (Last computer with Mac Classic. Went from family computer, to mothers first computer. Finally died in 2004)
4. G5 (Went from family computer, to my computer. Still working and running Panther. Thinking of upgrading to Tiger)
5. MacMini (Mothers computer, runs Tiger)
Laptops:
1. 12" G4 PowerBook (Bought in 2004. Has survived: summer in India, winter in Ottawa, summer in Montreal, trips to four European countries, a 6' drop onto cement, and its own powerbrick landing on its trackpad from 4'. Still works perfectly, only the track pads broken and the casing looks like its been through hell)
2. MacBook Pro (Bought in December 2006 and given to my Brother)
3. White MacBook (2.4 GHz, bought in October, technically my mothers but really I use it)

We have been a mac household from our very first computer. Though there was a PC desktop and laptop and a Sun workstation in the house at times.

Taegre (My first post, yay!)

[Tallest Skil]

I might have read the title wrong, but it says how many Macs have you owned, not list all the models.

OP dug himself into a hole when he listed his models and left three blank Apple logos after them...

[castanzarules]

Only one, in the sig. I plan to acquire many more though:)

Switched from micro$oft to mac in october and i'm never looking back:):apple:

[themoonisdown09]

OP dug himself into a hole when he listed his models and left three blank Apple logos after them...

:D Sure did...

I have only personally owned 3 Macs. And since we're listing off the models, here it goes:

1. 15" Powerbook G4 (early 2005)
2. 15" Macbook Pro (late 2006)
3. 24" iMac (late 2007)

[iToaster]

Hmm, I've had an original iMac G3, a G3 PowerBook, a Power Mac G4 MDD, a PowerBook G4 12", a MacBook, and a MacBook Pro. The MacBook Pro went in favor of a Mac Pro and I recently replaced the 12" PowerBook with a new unibody MacBook. Totaled up that makes 8 Macs.

[Memx]

OP dug himself into a hole when he listed his models and left three blank Apple logos after them...

ah
i see. sorry bout that.
i just wanted to see how many macs users own.
..........thou i don't think i'm in a hole right now............:apple::apple::apple:

[jlamb0]

I've had three over the years.
My first two were hand-me-downs: A Powerbook 150 and a Macintosh LC II. Both lasted a crazy long time.

Now I have a 2.4GHz Macbook.

[TuffLuffJimmy]

Me personally I've only owned two (the first was a ten year old powerbook I just had to tinker with). But growing up in my family I can recall about 5.

[cherry su]

Mac mini G4 (1.25GHz G4/1GB RAM/40GB HDD/32MB 9200) bought April 29, 2005
MacBook Pro (2GHz Core Duo/2GB RAM/100GB HDD/256MB X1600)
bought April 29, 2006

[Memx]

if i include my family, my dad has a PowerBook G5 (nice and narrow), and he also used to have a Blueberry iBook, which we still have.



Lets change that to a Blueberry iBook G3 Clamshell

[brad.c]

I could answer the question in two ways:
1. Never more than four at a time. I think.
2. SE/30<-- yadda yadda -->MBP4,1

Here's a bonus question: how many of those ubiquitous apple stickers (rainbow to white) have YOU owned?

[bartelby]

if i include my family, my dad has a PowerBook G5 (nice and narrow), and he also used to have a Blueberry iBook, which we still have.

You mean PowerBook G4.


I think I've had 8 Macs of varying types...

[jshado]

Apple //e
Apple //c
Macintosh LCII
Macintosh Performa 575
Power Macintosh 5260
iMac DV (400MHz, Green)
eMac (700MHz)
Power Macintosh G5 (dual 2 GHz)
Mac Book Pro 17" (2.16 GHz Core Duo)

Number 10 will probably be a mid-range iMac sometime at the end of 2009 beginning of 2010... (if they still make those)

[mcavjame]

2001 - Powerbook G4 400 Mhz - OS 9
2004 - 17" iMac 1.8
2005 - Mac mini 1.42 GHz
2006 - Macbook 2.16 GHz
2008 - 2 x Mac mini 1.83 GHz
January 2009 - ??? depends what gets released @ MWSF, but probably an 8 core 2.8 refurb.

[themoonisdown09]

You mean PowerBook G4.


I hope he does... unless Apple is planning on release the PowerBook G5 on Tuesday.

[bartelby]

Ssshhhhhh. Don't blow the "one more thing..." :rolleyes:

[Tallest Skil]

There won't be a Mac Pro, if that's what you're waiting for.

[Memx]

You mean PowerBook G4.

i think you're right. ;)
thou its not the same as any of the ones on wikipedia, its a very narrow one. can anyone tell me what it is?


oooooo, a new powerbook? nice

[marold280]

im 16. and i have owned an ibook g3, an imac g4 and an macbook.
(and i have converted 5 of my mates to mac :D )

[Tallest Skil]

thou its not the same as any of the ones on wikipedia, its a very narrow one. can anyone tell me what it is?

Mmm... pictures, please? MacBook Air?

[bartelby]

i think you're right. ;)

not from your scant description. Try using it and looking at the "About This Mac" screen...

[Cassie]

"narrow" makes me think of a 12" PowerBook G4.

[bartelby]

"narrow" makes me think of a 12" PowerBook G4.

It's the likeliest choice.

[mcavjame]

There won't be a Mac Pro, if that's what you're waiting for.

My Post does say a 2.8 refurb, but if something else is released that is compelling, I may be swayed.

[Memx]

not from your scant description. Try using it and looking at the "About This Mac" screen...

it doesn't work anymore, but it says :POWERBOOK G4 on it, but can't find it on the net.

[aethelbert]

I'd guess about ten since I replace both a desktop and a notebook every 3-4 years.

Ebay would be the best place. or ifixit.com (http://www.ifixit.com)

[mcavjame]

It's funny how we forget stuff. We just got a 20" 2.66 iMac for my son last October and I forgot my wife finally caved in and got a Mac when her PC laptop died last summer. She got a 2 GHz Macbook. Add them to my list.

i have another problem,
i went into an apple store today, and i was surprised to see a touchscreen mac computer. completly normal, except the product itself wasn't made by apple. i'd really like to know what it was..... any ideas? it was black and on a transparent stand, and about the size of a MacBook..:confused::confused::confused::confused:

it wasn't quite an apple store, it was an apple premium seller, but it was still and apple store...

[neiltc13]

My first one was a 14" iBook G4 1.3GHz which I bought because I couldn't quite afford the 12" PowerBook of the time. After that I got a 1.83GHz Core Duo MacBook, which was replaced a bit later by a 2.2GHz black MacBook. This year, I upgraded that to the 2.0GHz aluminium MacBook, remembering how much I wanted that 12" PowerBook a few years ago.

Out of all of them, I'd say that the iBook was the most reliable, I never had any problems with it at all. My latest MacBook is definitely the worst looking (what were they thinking when they put all of that hideous black plastic on there?) but it has the best constructed case.

[JG271]

Two, a mac mini that I sold a little while after I bought my macbook in november. I also had a Powermac G4 for a week, because I was going to buy it from someone, but it was too expensive :( (£350! in the summer of 07!) I miss it!

My parents had an Apple 2C when I was a kid, then about 6-7 months ago I got a whitebook and my wife liked it so much I gave it to her and I mave my current Macbook in my siggy.

[FJ218700]

those in my sig, plus a B&W G3, Sawtooth, an eMac, 500 and 700 mhz ibook, and a 3400c . So about 10 or so that I've actually bought myself (didn't buy the Pro though, grant money FTW).

If you throw in Macs I've used before that as hand-me downs from my father, add to that list a 1984, Plus, SE, '89 Mac II, Classic, '91 Quadra 700, color classic, 94 Power Mac, and a 96 Power Mac.

Also had an Apple IIe, IIgs, and a Newton.

[redwarrior]

I have two now, although my daughter would argue that one is hers.:rolleyes: Converted in 2/2008 and never looked back. Although, I have purchased 3 Windows machines since then for my family members. I see no reason to spend so much money to browse the web and check email.;)

[sushi]

I see no reason to spend so much money to browse the web and check email.;)
One area that I think Apple is missing the boat, is for business (office) users.

Most business users that I know need e-mail, web browsing, Word, Excel and PowerPoint. They don't need iLife type apps. Nor do they need DVD burners.

I wish that Apple would come out with an Intel iMac (C2D, 17 or 20 inch, 2 GB RAM, 80GB HD (small cheap one), and a Combo Drive focused for the typical office. Even eliminate WiFi since most offices use wired LANs. Sell it for $600. Make a deal with Microsoft to have Office 2008 pre-installed at say $650 per unit.

Too bad we'll never see this.

[HLdan]

I've had a total of 7 Macs since 1998. No offense to you recent "switchers" but only the TRUE Mac users have been around since the G3/G4/G5 days. The rest of you guys are Windows dependent and not a true Mac user. :p

Well I've had 4...

1. Gwen (1.5 Ghz G4 Powerbook)
2. Abby-Lynn (1.83 Ghz Core 2 Duo Macbook White)
3. Madison (2.2 Ghz Core 2 Duo Macbook Black)
4. Madeleine (2.0 Ghz Core 2 Duo Aluminum Macbook)

...computers that is.

[SlasherDuff]

One Blackbook, that is gonna change in the near future

[ryannel2003]

Bondi Blue 233MHz iMac G3
eMac 1.25GHz G4 Combo
12" iBook G4 1GHz
1.66GHz Core Duo Mac mini
2GHz 17" iMac
2GHz C2D MacBook

Of all of them, the MacBook has been my absolute favorite. Power of the iMac with the portability of the G4 iBook. My favorite design the 12" iBook; always loved that design, and that computer was so portable and fun to use. eMac had the best screen, with it's super crisp CRT. Both iMac's were great machines, and the Intel iMac was my 2nd favorite design. Extremely fast as well; my least favorite the Mac mini, which was slow and had an extremely crappy wireless signal. Only had it for 2 months before upgrading to Intel iMac.

iMac (mid 2007)
MacBook (late 2007)
iBook G4 (mid 2005)
MacBook Pro (early 2008)
iMac (mid 2008)
BlackBook (early 2008)


In that order.
Bolded are ones I still own.
However, I am trying to sell the BlackBook right now. :D

[iParis]

None. :(
Curse only being 16 and not having a job.
Come on Mac Mini update!

[iBookG4user]

I've had a total of 7 Macs since 1998. No offense to you recent "switchers" but only the TRUE Mac users have been around since the G3/G4/G5 days. The rest of you guys are Windows dependent and not a true Mac user. :p

Well, since I've been a Mac/Apple user since the Apple ][e came out, does that make me more of a TRUE Mac user than you that switched in the G3/G4/G5 days :p

[jessica.]

Three, PowerBook, MacBook Air, MacPro.
The MacBook doesn't count because I returned it.

Geeze.
Nice job. Do you still have any of your back-in-the-day Macs?

[iBookG4user]

Geeze.
Nice job. Do you still have any of your back-in-the-day Macs?

I do, I still have my Apple ][e and my Performa 650 and both still work great :)

The rest of you guys are Windows dependent and not a true Mac user. :p I switched as soon as Leopard came out. I have not used Windows on any of my computers since. I would say that hardly makes me Windows dependent. :p

Two. Had an Apple IIe back in the day as well.

Got a Mac Mini a few years ago just before the Intel switch. Got this MacBook Pro about a year after that.

Also have an iPhone and have owned 3 other iPods.

[sushi]

Still looking for a 20th Anniversary Mac and an Apple TV.
I have one ... a TAM.

No I am not selling it. :)

Also have an iPhone and have owned 3 other iPods.
If we include iPods/iPhones, then my count will go up by around 10.

[Memx]

I added a poll; the poll is only open for three days, and I may also close this thread at the end of the three days, merely because this has been done often, including fairly recently.

In the meantime, please enjoy. :)

cheers mate.
i dont know how to make a poll.

[andreab35]

I just have one... my beautiful MacBook Air.
I couldn't be any happier. :)

Oh yeah, and the Windows box is sitting in the closet.

[Sijmen]

PowerBook G4 12" (still works but battery is dead)
Late 2007 Intel iMac 24"

Great machines :)

I see some of you are updating like every generation. Is that normal? Seems like a lot for me.

[Bengt77]

I'm on my fourth own Mac. I've always had iMacs. My first was the very first iMac, the bondi blue 'gumdrop'. It was a delicious machine. Enjoyed it thoroughly. It was a whole lot of machine back then. Never had such a fast and powerful computer. People around me were really jealous, too. Good times! Then, I bought my second iMac, the first 'desk lamp' G4 model. Awesome machine. Was really disappointed to see the 17" model being introduced mere months after I bought my 15" model. Oh well. This is the machine I've used the longest time. Sold it after four and a half years for a small price.

Then, in 2007, I bought the first generation's top-end aluminium iMac. Really nice machine, but as I never used it after I'd bought my MacBook (which I'm using now), I sold it. Got a really good price for it. Last month, I threw away my first, bondi blue iMac. I tried starting it up some time ago, but it turned out to be dead. Therefore, I had no need to keep it any longer, so it had to go.

Before my first iMac, though, I've also used my dad's Macintosh ED, Macintosh SE/30 and Macintosh LCII. Really nice machines, for their time. I remember having computer class in high school and asking where the mouse was. I think all my classmates looked at me as if I was from another planet. They had never heard of a mouse. Fun times!

[Thorbjorn]

Ten Macs for me, beginning with Duo. Currently use primarily iMac and MacBook Air, and on occasion old Pismo and iBook and old iMac.

[Jeremy81]

I have a late a 2006 Black MacBook(just gave to mother), 24" 2.8 GHz Aluminum iMac, and 2.4 Aluminum MacBook. I also just converted my brother and sister getting them an Al MacBook and 20" iMac.

[FaulknerM]

i just switched after wanting a macbook for at least a year. Got a white macbook 2.1ghz, 120gb HD, suberdrive, 4gb ram....really loving it so far!

[NC MacGuy]

Do clones count?:p

Either way I'm up over 26.

[Buskape]

[mr.light]

If I have to restrict it to just Macs then I have had 6. 5 still work ( don't know about the 6th, I sold it). If I can include all my Apple computers, then I have had 14 in total. One of 4 of which were sold long ago. 2 of them were IIc clones- I don't even remember the name of the company anymore.
Never owned a windows machine. I did have a couple of C-64's though.

[cheesymogul]

1. Quadra 650
2. Power Mac G3 beige*
3. iBook Clamshell 366 Firewire* (Tiger works decent with 576 MB RAM. TDM came handy to install it...)
4. Power Mac G4 933 Quicksilver* (has been used 8 hrs/daily for 6 years and still runs smooth like on its first day!)
5. Mac Pro 2 x 2.8 GHz Quad*

*still owning

Would like to own a small footprint Macbook Pro, but unfortunately there is nothing that fits my needs. Unibody, FW800 or PC express slot, matte display, 13" max. (12" would be even better).

[jbromer]

1. Powerbook 540c (1994-1995)
2. PowerMac 7200 (1995-1996)
3. Power Computing PowerCenter 132 (1997-1999)
4. Blue and White G3 (1999-2003)
