• My PowerBook G4/500 is called "Difference Engine", after the early steam-powered computer designed and (partially) built by Charles Babbage in the 19th century. If you don't know about Babbage and his Difference (or the Analytical) Engine, it's well worth looking up- a really amazing man, cursed to be too far ahead of his time. Anyway, with the TiBook's smooth metal design, I couldn't help but name it after a steam-powered computer! [


• My 'new' Rev. A iMac, which (as some of you might already know from the MacAddict forums) I was lucky enough to buy for only $35 at the local Goodwill! It came with a Pro Keyboard and Pro mouse (each worth more then $35 by themselves...), but the CPU card was blown. A kind soul donated his 'old' 333 mHz card from a later model iMac, and now the little-iMac-that-could is up and running again! Anyway, in honor of it's cool color, it's now going to be called "Deep Blue". It's survived repeated brain-surgery, as well as several (failed) attempts to mount neon lights inside... I can't wait till that's working....


• PowerBook 1400cs/133, called "Osborne 1", after the super-cool early CP/M based portable computer system.
  
• PowerBook 180/33, called "Kaypro II", after the (other) super-cool early CP/M based computer system. I actually had one of these systems (the Kaypro II) a few years ago- the thing was built like a tank! For all I know, it might still be at my dad's house...


• Mac Quadra 950, called "HAL 9000". This computer is (so far as I'm aware), the second-most powerful 680x0 based system ever shipped (only behind the Quadra 840av), and is certainly the LARGEST Mac I've ever seen! One of these days I'm going to laquer(sp) it flat black and install some sort of glowing red eye... then it'll really live up to the name!

[*]Lastly, my Newton 120, called "PADD", after the little flat-panel PDA-type things seen on "Star Trek: The Next Generation". The Newton is such a cool gadget....

Later,
SpaceBoy

BTW, the beige iMac sorta fried..... The screen died anyhow. I was too lazy to put ventalation in the thing which caused this to happen.... The plastic in the top of the 580's case started melting.... I need to get some pics taken and put on my site.

I've heard that the Q800 is faster due to its newer and presumably more efficient design. Anyone?

PM 8500 *DAISY*:
OC g3@ 420
768 meg ram
Pci Radeon
Ultra ATA Card
40gig 7200 Seagate Barracuda drive (completely silent, sweet drive)

I painted the case competition orange w/ 2 white racing stripes down the front. I'll post some pics if anybody wants to see.

Quadra 950 *TANK*:
256 meg ram
2gig Seagate Barracuda drive (Drive is named JET ENGINE)
Raid of 4 250 meg drives
VideoVision Studio Card w/ breakout box

I got this out of somebody's garbage (it had a sign that said "free" on it) Along with it, there was a 21" Supermac mono display. I already had the videovision card. It just gave that away, because it was too big and had uber screen burn-in. It was raining that day and my dad (who is anti-mac) gave me crap for getting it, saying it wouldn't work. It works great as a file/web server and as a tribute to all macs facing peril against winblows users everywhere.

Quadra 700
I killed it accidently.

Quadra 650
*My first mac and now my sister's journal*

Performa 476
no name, don't use it

PB165 *notanewton*
Currently dead - corrupt system folder.

Mac Classic *ALarm Clock*
4 meg ram upgrade

Newton 130
no name, i choose not to name it, no name could be better than newton.

Also,
Apple OneScanner
Apple Laserwriter II NTX (just gave it away today, bad paper feeder)

I have tons of little odds and ends, not to mention many pieces. but those are the few that are either working or could be with some effort. I only mess with the 8500 and the 950. The rest hardly see daylight.
