PowerMac 7200 was my 1st, the display I can’t recall.
I thought I bought it -93 but memory seems wrong, at least everymac.com say -95. They probably have better memory/data. Beautiful thing!

Here you go, it simply had speakers.

30gb iPod Photo. Bought it with some of my graduation money from 8th grade.

First Apple product for my own use was an unenhanced 512k Macintosh in late 1985. Minute I unboxed the thing and booted it I knew I was done buying DOS machines even if I had a few of them around for another couple years.

First gear I ever bought from Apple was an Apple IIc in summer of 1984 for a nephew. He was a farmer's kid then, and has since credited that machine for his eventually having become an aeronautical engineer. I credit that more to his self discipline, and his fervent desire to do something besides help a cow dog fetch a bunch of wandering Holsteins down off a hill farm's pastures on chilly summer evenings, never mind shovel out from behind them in the barns. 😀

The first product I owned was an iPhone 4 (that my mother gave me), that's when I discovered Apple, but the first Apple product I buyed myself was an iMac 20" Early 2006, after two years of messing around with hackintosh (even tho I'm back at it haha)

Apple IIc (Replaced a Commodore 64)

Then business pushed me to these newfangled PC's, learning DOS 3.1, basic, WordPerfect, Lotus 123, and of course DBase II where if you wanted a database, dot prompt...start typing. AppleWorks was so far advanced, but there was the business adage "No one ever got fired for buying IBM." Built my own PCs (not laptops) from 286 processor on.

Finally, while already had iPhone and iPad, Windows 8 drove me back to Apple as I needed a laptop. After trying a Windows 8 laptop, returned it to Best Buy and got a MBP.

That's very reminiscent of the ones we had in my elementary school that replaced the Apple ][s in 94ish?

My first was Apple Macintosh Performa 575.

My first and favorite Apple product - 12" PowerBook G4.
I loved that thing - the styling, stability, portability, computing power - it was a great laptop and a great gateway drug into the Apple ecosystem, lol.

This design really holds up over time. Reduce/remove those display bezels and slim the casing down a little bit and I'd buy one of these today!

First gen iPod shuffle...

 

[rambo47]

Wallstreet PowerBook G3 (Series 1)

This was the bee's knees when it came out. I had it set up for tri-boot with OS9, OSX public beta, and Yellowdog Linux. WiFi through an Orinoco Silver card.
