I picked it up as a collectors piece, as I think someday it'll be worth something, just like the original 128k Mac is. This makes Mac #6 in my household, next to the 1.8ghz upgraded G4, 2- Wallstreet Powerbooks, my Pismo Powerbook, and my iMac DV.

I still own 2 of them...everyone thought they were Macs but were actually pc's. I used them for point of sale machines....I think the stock operating system was windows 98...or 95..havent hooked them up in a while but both are still in my garage... maybe you remember the pc that was released and looked exactly like this.

Most people don't realize that it's hard to describe everything in captions of 100 words or less. :) But I agree with you, Jim. That puck mouse was atrocious.
