i usually do old 8bit ataris myself, but your mentioning of a compact mac
reminds me that i bought a pretty cool compact mac over the weekend. i got
a mac plus (have NO idea what kind of upgrades, etc are in it) and an
external 20 meg (woooohoooo!!) scsi drive. i got it to be kind of a gateway
between my pc network (with a powermac 7500 on it too) and the apple 2 gs
that i have been playing with lately.
the thing i wished i had gotten was the full page monitor that was sitting
neext to it (one of those radius monitors). it was just too big and i have
a very tiny car (a honda crx) and it was already packed full. went back to
the rummage sale yesterday and the sale was over. bummer.
what other kind of old computers do you have?
