My Commodore 64 is more upgradable than my Mac 6100/66. The Commodore 64 has everything that the 6100/66 offers (except the C64 offers larger HD support)PLUS some intrepid users are STILL developing for it. That's strange, a twelve year old computer that isn't upgradeable???
The only thing is that you are wrong. The last 6100/66 that I had was upgraded to a Sonnet 210MHz G3 processor, 128MB RAM, had a 6GByte SCSI drive, and an Apple Intel 486DX-2 processor PC compatibility NuBus card with 32MB installed with Windows 95. That last item had an octopus of a cord attached to it with a connector for every PC output/input. I do believe it was only running Apple OS 8.6 though. I never tried OS 9 on it.

Now, exactly what "legacy software" won't run??? It was the first PowerPC... but I never found ANYTHING from older Macs that failed to run.

"I was in the Apple Store in Sacramento..."
We love that place!
Just bought another video ipod. :)
Hubby and daughter have them, but I was going to make do with the first generation ipod, at least till I had problems with the old one.
Luckily, I did!
The new one should be here in a couple days!
(Ordered it on line for the free engraving.)
About the 6100/66.
Our 12 year old is still running fine.
We don't have it on line any more, but it's still nice for classic games.
Enjoying the MacBook Pro!
Pretty nifty.
