#40 Sorry to disappoint you, but I never owned an Apple Mac. I went from Apple IIc, to Commodore Amiga (A1000 & A3000). And they suited my use for ten years. Until accessing the Internet with a text only account, was no longer possible. It was HTML or nothing, and the Amiga’s processor speed just wasn’t up to the demands of changing graphics. Though it could handle some video graphics files. So I suspect it was a matter of poorly written TCP/IP stack and browser ware, for it. If it had been written in machine code, it would have been Ok. It just proved far easier to find a used PC (with XP), than to get a stack working on the Amiga 3k.
I never liked those early Macs, because of their small B&W screens, lack of sound and motion video, and a closed programing policy that locked out a lot of useful (often free) programs, written by freelance authors Apple would never have approved. True, this kept out a lot of the junk software. But this didn’t seem to hurt PC’s sales, for having buggy wares. No, not a Mac fan. Then or even now.
