    Not only Ugly But Stolen.....

    Story about the Guy who originally came up with the IDEA

    Mac R&D actually stole that Idea.

    what's the world coming to?

    So even the gifted elitists at Apple succumb to theivery when it suits them. Just for that I hope this new IMAC falls flat on it's LCD.

    I've got a Macintosh Classic II. Buried beneath half a dozen old keyboards, two old monitors, about 300 CD's, a stack of paper and an air duster (among other things). I'd play with it (it works fine - slowly, but fine), but I'm missing the mouse, and keystrokes are so cumbersome....

    And it's black and white. I'm so old......

    b&w...?...old?...hell...i just got rid of an apple IIe (the e was cause it had the 128k memory expansion i think...for you young-uns...that is 128 K....not 128 M... )
    it was a green screen baby....now THAT's old....no need for a mouse back then...was all text.....but it was oh so funky playing pong on it...even came with little dial-y controller thingies...
