I think it should stick with G3, 4 & 5. Apple never used the 750 and 7xxx names, at least not from a marketing point of view.

Um, and Apple used the 65816 from a marketing point of view?! 😛

G3, G4, etc. are all marketing names, it makes absolutely zero sense for them to be used as rankings here. MacRumors uses actual processors, not marketing names, and I don't see why they would change that. 😎

I say we change the Banned ranks to the names of early PC processors, what spammed wouldn't love being called a 486?

True. I guess I wasn't thinking all that much. 😱

That's not low enough. Aim for the 8088.

Is it a quote from the keynote way back in '84 when the original Apple Macintosh was unveiled?

No worries - it's just that there would be zero logic in doing things the way you suggested. 😉

Job's intro for the Macintosh? Well, before the Mac 128K introduces him.
