Apple sure has come a long way in 20 years. I remember hanging out in computer class playing Oregon Trail on my Apple II. Insert floppy disc and hit a whole bunch of esc commands or something. I can't really remember how it all went. Pictured above is the first Mac that had a 9 inch monitor and 128 KB. It sold for $2,495. Crazy huh?Macs have really been on my mind. The hubby and me would like to upgrade computers and purchase the iMac.
And how are we justifying it? Well, the baby, of course. It has a built-in webcam and iLife which can hold pictures and home movies. We'll see how far our justification gets us. Santa, I promise we've been good. And after seeing what the Apple II used to cost, $1199 seems like a steal!
If anyone has interest in purchasing this 15" iMac, let me know.

We bought one for the girls for Christmas- not the super huge one, but the one right below it. I think its definately worth it! I love mac and will never go back to a pc
spoil yourself- you deserve it!
And i used to love Where in the world in Carmen Sandiego and Lemonade Stand...they were the best! :)
I am stunned at the price of the original Mac, crazy. I would love to purchase the 15 inch Mac, however, I think delivery might be tricky. Let me know your price and maybe we can figure something out. And I agree, spoil yourself, you'll need something to help balance life with a baby, the iMac would be perfect!
Oh my, I feel old, I had that little 9 incher when I went to college. WITH my dot-matrix printer. (I think that's what it was called. . .)
