Yay! More additions to my vintage Mac collection!

After working my tail off fixing up Macs sold “for parts” on eBayand reselling them to my robotics team I have finally made enough money to buy some legacy Macs and Mac accessories for myself!

Gee do I never learn… @mayer you have competition for the Dr. House of Macs title now ;-)

Macs and Mac accessories I already have

  • 3 original PowerPC Mac minis
  • 2 Early 2008 MacBook Core 2 Duos, one in black and one in white
  • 2 Late 2011 MacBook Pros, one 13” and one 15”
  • 1 2015 MacBook Pro, mainly used as my only Windows machine
  • 1 Mac Pro from 2010
  • 1 original release MacBook Air still in it’s factory packaging to this day (these are going for 10,000$ on eBay!)
  • 1 working set of Apple Pro Speakers
  • 1 Apple Pro mouse, in black
  • 1 Apple Mighty Mouse
  • 1 Apple Pencil
  • My AirPods were stolen so they are no longer with us ;-(

Macs that I bought yesterday…

  • 1 Power Macintosh G3 (I will create some guides for iFixit with this one)
  • 1 iBook Clamshell Bondi Blue (re-live the introduction here)
  • 1 iMac G3 Bondi Blue, the computer that respectively saved Apple! (bought for dirt cheap from my Grandparents)

@pollytintop You collect cars and motorcycles, I collect Apple products. We are in the same boat of never learning, haha! :-)

Well done @ajcooke01 , soon you too will have far too much stuff and not enough time to fix it.

This is Bob. He is my Achilles heel.

Looks like a VW Westfalia bus type-2 or is this the copy cat Toyota bus?
