I have a Mac Classic on display above my bookshelves (saw another
library that did this). The kids sometimes ask me about it (I think
it is about circa 1992---would have to check my deleted inventory)
and I tell them how excited we were to get a computer with a hard
drive. It still worked when I put it up there. I imagine that it
still does. I have owned 6 Macs personally and still have three of them.
