also in 6th grade our school got the quadras with video in/out which was loving money in those days the school wanted to do a live newscast (which involves just filming in the library in front of a Sony handycam reading announcements), so I rigged the camera thru the Mac and did on screen graphics which was a complete fluke due to the fact that if the video window was behind some other window, anything colored magenta would allow video to seep through so throw some hyperstudio slides together and bam...a graphics package with alpha mask. 90s macs best macs

I used a Mac in '96 running Photoshop 3, that was not a needs-suiting experience at all.

buncha children up in here First Mac used regularly was a "Fat Mac." There were a couple of original 128K Macs in the lab... get there late and haha gently caress you, hope you enjoy swapping discs. I remember when we phased those out for Pluses... I remember when we replaced the Pluses with SEs (dual-floppy supremacy! no more swapping application and System disks!)... I remember intense jealousy because certain members of faculty got SE/30s instead of standard SEs... we were the first university in the Caribbean to purchase a IIfx !!! Imagine spending $12K on a single workstation these days. Also : the IIci startup chime is the best startup chime

No >300ms loading delay or anything. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxioQiA_4Bs

If you made a big mistake you could frequently have to start from scratch plus a basic unsharp mask would take 5-10 minutes to run

my elementary school had macs too- but I wasn't so brain-dead retarded that I thought they were cool. Actually, I realized they sucked balls and got a powerful PC at home to frag people online, cruise the encarta cd, and fly around the world of ancient computers like TRON but way cooler. some nanmby-pamby goody 2 shoes bitch: "they have Macs at school and my teacher says theyre great. They must be great" Actually cool person with critical thknking skills: "They're trying to brainwash me.. better check out the specs and get the best rig. Hmm, turns out that's a powerful custom PC! Cool. "

ive had a fair few ok not counting the //gs first mac i got was surplus around 2001, i got it from a buddy in apt complex. quadra 800 in a quadra 700 case, with 2 external scsi drives. whole setup with crt was like 200 fkn lbs it was stupid and great. oh yeah it was running BSD.  after that i got my hands on one of the most loving garbage trash macintoshes ever performa 5300.  quote:But Apple went beyond crippling the 64-bit CPU on a 32-bit data bus – way beyond that. Its ONLY redeeming value was that it had a TV tuner card. Umm, after that I got my hands on a powermac 8600, it was pretty cool too and i dug it.  after that, lessee, it was all OS X. i had a g4 MDD ('mirror drive door'  ) with matching display, setup was just like this after that, i got handed a 'dead' g4 mac mini, reseated the PO-installed RAM upgrade and sold it for $300. Then picked up a g4 imac, a g4 ibook, built a hackintosh, bought two blackbooks, and now I have a 15" rmbp.
