Blueberry iMac G3? I have a few of those (I collect vintage machines). Mine still connect to wi-fi Internet, but don’t run a lot of the newer stuff and videos. They’re dual-boot OS9 or OSX. They’re pretty machines but they’re heavy and huge - like all 1990s stuff. Apple started selling machines without DVD slots a few years ago, slots are sort of useless now.

I know it isn’t. But A.M.D. beat Intel to the punch—remember the fiasco that was Itanium? Never really took off.

Modern AMD and Intel chips implement AMD64—Intel’s is slightly different, they call it EM64T.

The only way to improve that story is if the Air had crushed Michael Moore’s or Al Gore’s skull on impact.

To the degree of pain I’ve suffered as of late and the amount of medication to quench such pain, I must admit that I’ve only verified my range to target as in [me-to-mattress], and the physics equation to such action unfortunately escaped me, as well as applying such equations to anything else I managed to do yesterday.
*sigh*
