It’s what you’re accustomed to. I started with a 48k AppleII+ And 16k language card for Pascal, an external floppy and an Edson MX-80 printer for $2k in the early 1980’s. Smokin’!

I was hardcore Apple only at home but in the 1990’s To 2015 used various Windows boxes at work. My last one at work cost about what my first on cost but it had a multiprocessor cpu, a huge graphics card that cost as much as the computer and 5 TB of disk space. A straight-up image processing behemoth that I really liked. It cut work flow from days to hours. Amazing. That’s my target (brought up to date) for my future desktop purchase. Smoking processors, blasting graphics card and huge storage. And no, I’m not into games and porno!

But I still adore my little Apple laptop. I wish I had a few more oil wells so I could buy a top of the line Apple image processing workstation because despite vast improvements since Windows 3.1.1, Apple operating system is freaking brilliant. I wish I had the balls to relearn Unix so I could deal with the beast in his lair directly. But I’m spoiled.
