I kept it in part because it’s worth nothing to anyone else today and scrapping it just seems wrong!Īlso, I had the idea that I could use it to learn about how Macs are built…which I tried to do somewhat when I upgraded the memory. In case you’re wondering…no one really uses it anymore but I’ve always loved that computer…it was our very first Mac. It just so happens that we still have a relatively early model iMac. “Readers can support albums by sending wallpapers that are not in the album or in better quality,” he said.
