MY FREAKIN' RAD COMPUTERS

Ok ok ok so Im finally getting around to writing this up, Ive been meaning to do this ever since I started this profile, but I fell down the CSS/HTML rabbithole and have just recently escaped.

ANYWAY

Howdy! First off, thank you for taking the time to look at this. These machines have been a labor of love, and I absolutely enjoy discussing them with people who also enjoy them. I've been collecting these since I was 18, though my efforts have slowed a lot since then. All of these Ive found through sites such as Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, various want ads, and word of mouth. Most of them work, though several do not function at full capacity due to my limited soldering capabilities. (Mainly the compact Macs, as they are an absolute chore when it comes to diagnosing/fixing issues.)

Ive also found some interesting oddities in my travels, including a Japanese iBook, radar control boards, some early Apple II systems from a local college, a collection of several hundred floppy disks documenting years worth of  horse racing bets and winnings, as well as various other items.

Below is a list of pretty much every system I have, sorted by manufacturer.

Finally, here are some various photos of my collection. (I apologize in advance if the images are too big or whatnot, Im notoriously bad at putting them in)





And thats all so far! Thank you again for taking a look, it means a lot. Ill likely fix this up as time goes on. I might also do a separate post cataloging my game collection, as that those are just as interesting. Also might start a series where I look at each individual system in-depth, though we shall see!
