How Many Mac's Have You Owned??

Yikes...this requires a trip in the Wayback machine Mr. Peabody. From newest to oldest:

  • MacPro 2.66GHz
  • MacBook 2.0GHz
  • ...the dark PC years...
  • PowerBook 540
  • PowerBook Duo 230
  • PowerBook 170
  • Mac Centris 610CD
  • Macintosh SE
  • Macintosh 128K (the original!)...along with its trusty sidekick, the loveable ImageWriter
  • Apple IIc

You can also throw in an iPod Shuffle (512K), iPod nano (2GB) and iPod Video (30GB)
