I was still supporting some scientific analysis workstations that were on System 6 in 2006. The hardware and software combo wouldn't run on anything else.

God help us, I read the entire hardcover "Inside Macintosh" set of books.

Farewell, Classic. Now I have nothing to play Swoop or Fungus on. =(

Indy

1996–1998

One of the first computer experiences I had. I was mostly playing simple games, as I was too little, and maybe painting some pictures or writing some small texts. I liked to experiment and learn what things did.

Briefly, when I bought the TiBook, waiting for OS X to show up. Pretty much only ever played "Diablo 2" on it.
