Apple Apple is holding their European Expo and nowadays being a Mac owner thought I'd go along. If Apple has such a pitiful market share then you'd expect it to be a small show with little software and few visitors. Er No, this was the complete opposite. Pictures of the Expo included.

I also have one of the earlier model G-3's, beige and white, 233 Mhz. I've backloaded OS X, 10.2 onto it, and I'm still surprised sometimes by how snappy it is.
We have an ancient MacII fx at work from around 1990 -- still works fine: even though it's been officially "retired", we still need to break it out from time to time to get some old data from it that never got rewritten for the PC.

I have a desktop using Linux Fedora Core 2. It's nice, but on a day-to-day basis, my iBook G-4 and my wife's eMac are simply more convenient to use.
(Danger for the Mac, though -- eventually we WILL graduate to Linux-only, but that won't be for a couple more years).
