Q700 definitely. The first tower (although it wasnt really a tower). There was always something more masculine about a tower, but thats not a subject I feel comfortable talking about ;-). Plus, I have a trusty q700 thats been working since i bought it (new) without a hitch.Weapons Expert VanMan2004

i guess it was the first purpose built tower, the freakin' name on it is vertical if you lay it flat! i was going to say the IIx was the first tower and the IIci was the second, but they had the names set for horizontal use. i LOVE the teensy removable feets on my IIci! i got a Quadra 700 for $5 a couple of weeks ago, interesting machine.jt ™.

Hmm, I'm someone who is not too fast these days, but powerful and cool.
So I'll say a IIfx, even though I've never owned/seen one.~Coxy - Leader, Tactical Operations Unit

I'd be a IIci. Solidly built, most often found laying down with something on top of me but occasionally actually found standing up Seriously I don't really know. I get so many aches and pains (and at only 21!!) I'd probably be more akin to a Windblows PC - especially during my finals last month, as I was permanantly in a state of almost breaking down (like Windblows!). At the moment I'm feeling a bit like a newly released Mac - I'm powerful and useful and well qualified but, apart from a select few, no one seems to know how good I actually am. Also I think my marketing strategy is crooked. A bit like Mr. Jobs' tactics, I don't think I'm going all the right way at selling myself to potential employers! Anyhoo. Kepp it real - I'm in an internet cafe in Edinburgh (still). --

I'm definitely a Mac II because:1) I am relic from the early days of computing (boy, I remember when prepeecees had 16k RAM and we were proud of it too!) 2) I've still got some spunk in me and I still work OK (I may not be as fast as all those new whippersnappers, but I get the job done) 3) I'm expandable (I'm always ready for a new card, new bit'o software, etc. I have expanded about the middle too, but thats another issue entirely) G4From128k by Day: Mild-Mannered Engineer and Trapeze(tm) Artist

I'd be a newton OMP (not a mac, but darn close). You can't put me down because i'm still fun to play with*, but no matter how many times you tell me, i'll still get it wrong.**

I would have to split it down to my various conponents:Overall: Quadra 840AV; Old, but still useful. Expandable, and AV oriented.
Physical: Mac 512K; the codename says it all... "FatMac"
*or* Mac Portable; about 30 lbs overweight.
Mental: Quadra 950; solid performer, with extensive memory and storage space. ------------------

Mentally, though, i'd be a Performa 5200. Overloaded and underpowered, and a bit finicky at times. A couple of years ago, though, i would have been an iMac DV SE. Popular with girls, powerful, useful, and cute (well at least thats what they used to say, anyway...). -------------------------- Pizzabox LCs RULE!!!!!!! Warrior maclover5
