The Museum

This is my own Apple Museum. I collect those old machines, which would end up in the trash if I hadn't collect them. My collection is still small, for two main reasons:

• I am still a student, so the funding to buy old Macs is quite limited... and I still live at my parents' house, so the space that I have to store my collection is a bit short;
• Here in Portugal, Apple Macintoshes are quite rare (but the situation is changing a little...). Most of my findings are from Universities, when they renewed their IT department;

Nevertheless, the collection is still worth mentioning! Click on any of the links below to access some information and photos about my old Macs.

The collection

• Apple ImageWriter I (circa 1984)
• Apple Macintosh Plus (1986-91)
• Apple Macintosh SE/30 (1989)
• Apple Macintosh IIci (1989)
• Apple Macintosh IIvx (1992) (donated to Colossus)
• Apple Macintosh LCIII (1993)
• Apple Macintosh Performa 5200CD (1995)
• Apple PowerBook G3 "Pismo" (2000)
• Apple iBook G3 "Clamshell" (2000)
• Apple iMac Core Duo 17'' (2006)

For now, I plan getting an used Blue and White G3 PowerMac, to use as a server for this website.

But I am always open for offers... please, do not trash those machines, unless there is absolutely nothing I can do for them! They can still be useful, as you can see when looking at the section about the server that powers this website.
