  My old Apple still boots, thats right, Apple. This one: http://www.apple-history.com/frames/?
  
  My Mac plus still runs, my LC still runs, my two Performa 6400s still run, and of course, my cube (which I'm on now), and my AGP G4 Tower. Every Mac that I have ever owned still boots. I need one of those bumper stickers.

  They don't die unless you try some third-party L2-cache slot-driven G3 upgrade card that fries the motherboard (our poor Performa 6400...RIP).

  Or until you blow up the Power supply in an effort to try to reconfigure the circuitry to pump out an extra amp at 5V. . . .
  
  
  
  But give it a fresh supply and that baby still runs. . . TNT with G3 300, 1MB of L2 at 200, and a 66Mhz bus. . . an overclocked fiend.
  
  
  
  circa 1995.
