Hello folks, my name is Daniel Jaramillo (don't ask about the last name). I'm new to the forums, but not to the Macintosh (having used them in school). Unfortunately, I have been a PC user (XP). That lasted for a year and a half. Once the PC died, we bought an iMac G5.

I think it's great to have a forum dedicated to liberating vintage Macs. I've had contact with a couple of users and I'm half ready to buy to start my collection. I'm looking forward to meeting all of you.

Welcome to the forum.

Welcome, welcome! There are many Macs around to be liberated from the landfill and/or recyclers. I myself have liberated several platoons worth of machines lately, but there are more to save!

Hey, at the very least, we're being green, keeping hazardous materials from being introduced into the environment by keeping these things around. I've saved enough Macs to pretty much be carbon neutral for the next ten years.

Greetings and welcome to the forums!

Any idea on how far back in history you want to go? 68K CPU, PPC, G*, what?

Nice iMac G5. I always liked that series, no matter what others say.

I want to go all the way back to the blue box.

Thanks, I like our Mac because he's so strong and yet so gentle. I liked how we just had to slap a mouse and keyboard on it to get it to work. Everything is in the screen!

The blue box? As in generating the 2600Hz tone required to mess with old school telephony equipment? Good time right there. I have schematics if interested.
