Some scam artist just sold a first-generation Intel-based Mac to an acquaintance of mine for $800. She wanted to get a Mac, but didn't know anything about them, and so this shithead sold her a 2006 Mac Pro that can only go up to OS X 10.6 and, like, 2 or 4GB RAM because it's only got 32-bit CPUs. He told her $800 was a "steal" based on the prices of current Mac Pros.

edit: I also know a photographer who's desperately clinging to her PowerMac because "It cost $5000!!!" when she bought it back in 2005. Yes, she spent $5000 on a PowerMac after Apple had announced they were switching from PowerPC to Intel.

not any worse than the idiot who goes to Best Buy and walks out with whatever shitheap PC the greasy-haired salesman tells him to buy, plus a $150 protection plan and pays to have Geek Squad install the latest updates and poo poo.

i still keep my powerbook around because it can still boot OS 9 for old games

a last generation powerpc mac is more useful than a first generation intel mac at this point
