I still have the originial 128K Macintosh I purchased in 1984. I've had many computers since then, all of which I've sold, but I will never part with that original Macintosh. I don't care about the monetary value, which I'm sure is negligible. Its got sentimental value to me. Back in those days, getting that Mac was really special. Nowadays, computers are practically throwaway items, but not back in the mid-80's.

Incidentally, from time to time I turn it on and boot up System 1.0 and MacWrite. It still works, and I could still compose a letter on it.

I have a 512 from 1985, plus a couple of early powerbooks.
