Remember when everything started with “i”? Things seemed more light-hearted and personal back then.

Just eyed my tangerine iBook tucked in the corner.
Anyone still keeping these running?
Could it even handle the modern web? Early wifi.
It has classic Mac OS, and I would need a power brick to even start it up. Battery? The power adapter had something akin to an RCA connection.
If I could get text files over to it, it had my most highly tweaked and useful regex packed copy of BBEdit I’ve ever had I loved to see again, along with other archaeology.
Nel 1999 Jobs creò #iBook: colorato, economico, pieno di compromessi. Oggi il #MacBookNeo costa €699. Gruber dice che Jobs lo avrebbe amato. Ha ragione? La risposta vi sorprenderà. Forse.
