I will admit that I "staged" it slighty... the Apple II Basic book usually isn't there, but I am currently reading it, so I set it there. And ignore the calendar, I ripped the page and it fell back to February.... again. :x

In the picture -
Mirror Drive Door Power Mac G4 - Dual 1.25GHz CPUs, 2GB RAM, OS X 10.5.8. This is my main computer that I use daily. I love it... never, EVER had a problem with it. Most people say "Why keep an old PowerPC Mac?" Simple. It does everything I need it to do on a daily basis. Internet, email, eBay, craigslist, Youtube, Hulu, CNN, etc.

ThinkPad A31 - 2.0GHz P4-M, 512MB RAM.

Apple IIGS - Yes, a IIGS! Has a smokin' 2.8MHz (Not GHz) processor, HUGE 4MB of RAM, and a gigantic 80MB HD.

Nice! That A31 is sexy! Hows Youtube on the IIGS? I'm guessing 720p is fine, but 1080 is out of the question 8)

Oh, that IIGS is a MONSTER. It can play 10x10 pixel videos at 1 frame per year. I don't even think my Dual core AMD laptop could handle such a high quality video. :lol:

It's SO powerful that when I switch it on, I go back to 1987... a year before I was born.
