Playboy praises Mac

In the 50th Anniversary January 2004 issue of adult magazine Playboy, the Apple Macintosh Desktop Computer is ranked #1 among the products that most "changed the world." With a 128 kilobyte hard drive, the original Macintosh "had one 312,500th of the memory that Apple's latest MP3 player now possesses. But for most folks at the time, it had power to spare."

128K hard drive? Someone needs to install more RAM in the person who wrote it.

First post? Get a life.

128K hard drive?

Playboy?

It was 128K of RAM and a 400K floppy drive. Hard drives were astronomically expensive.

At the time, just about everyone complained that 128K was too little. That's why I bought a 512K Mac!

Still, good press is good press!

Of course

It only makes sense. The Mac brought the first bit-mapped display architecture that could actually display pictures. As in pictures of half-naked and fully naked women. Which only then pushed the p*** industry into a whole new medium.

It certainly couldn't be windows. You know how annoying it is to be half way through 'enjoying' yourself only to have your computer crash and need to be rebooted...
