Thanks to a very kind online seller, I was able to finally get my hands on a personal computing history holy grail...a fully functional Macintosh 512k! I have adored this machine since I first learned about it many, MANY years ago. I think it's just truly iconic and it definitely revolutionized computing by being the first to have a graphical interface/desktop. I also just love the shape of it so much and the gentle hums, clicks, and beeps as it processes operations. It needed a little clean up work, especially on the keyboard where the rubber feet degraded so badly that they became a gross, melty mess. I was able to strip the rubber and get it squeaky clean though! I'm in love and I can't wait to create experimental art projects and experiment with software on it...
