<post your response>
I first used a Mac in 2007 when I went to university as a mature student,
I got myself a MacBook. It had 10.4 Tiger installed and I was gobsmacked
at how good it was compared to Windows!
Not long after that I picked up my first vintage Mac on eBay and had my
first experience of classic Mac OS, and was again gobsmacked at how much
nicer System 7 was when compared to my memories of using Windows 95 and
98...
I still use classic Mac OS because I enjoy the elegant simplicity of it.
The UI is fantastic when compared to other non-Windows operating systems
of the 90s; AmigaOS for example is a royal pain in the arse compared to
Mac OS.
And it's just fun, I enjoy pottering on my couple of old Macs, getting a
sense of satisfaction out of doing stuff with them. It gives me the warm
and fuzzies, bathed in a sense of nostalgia; even though I didn't
experience classic Mac Os first time around, using it transports me back
to a simpler time when the world was full of possibility. :)
