    Check out the free Apple computer I scored yesterday:

    Macintosh Plus

    I powered it up and it works perfectly. Now all I need is a mouse, keyboard, and a copy of MacDraw and I'll be on my way to an exciting career as a graphic designer in 1987. :P

    • That looks like it's in really good condition.

      For free too? I'm a bit envious.

    • I've been waiting for apple to do this for so long, I give up, 3k sounds pretty fuckn goodGeorgesII
    • Is Windows usable yet?i_monk
    • Im a life long apple user. I had to use windows to design at a job for 2 years. it wasn't bad at all. I didn't do anything else on the computer though.sofakingback

    • I rarely get a chance to use Win, but the last few times it's felt clunky and unintuitive.i_monk
    • Looks amazing. Hopefully the OS is good and I'd be down. I think they could have made the video equally as nice while maintaining brand originality.set

    • ^ i think that just involves setting the screen ratio to 16:10 - i'm guessing that's an option in this gamekingsteven
    • For peak performance the pro settings are fullscreen and native rez *cough cough*.. sorry, totally not a RL nerd. No idea where that came from.garbage

    • On one hand this is a problem for obvious reasons, you can never see 16x9 scale full screen w/o this w/o letterboxing it?.. on other hand that hud is too tightprophetone
    • Rocket League? More like Blockit Leaguestoplying
    • The native resolution is closer to 16:10, so a 16:0 would still have black bars no problem, even at full screen.monospaced
    • 16:9 that is. The notch wouldn't get in the way.monospaced
    • @prophet the aspect ratio is 1728:1117, 16:10 + 74px notch, closer to 3:2 including the notch. it's awkward as fuck but there's some logic to it.kingsteven
    • there would need to be an option in natively compiled games to drop the viewport by 74px (rather than vertically centring) when in 16:10 to make sense thoughkingsteven
    • ya... there is a setting to avoid this. so it's just like a normal screen.inteliboy
    • There is, but any high level player is more concerned with frame rate / fov than the scoreboard. It is annoying though.garbage
    • black bars, no notch. i want to see the edge of the screen properly. it drives me nuts when something fucks with the viewport geometry.sted

    • looking forward to gaming on it if it's a possibility but if i do it'll be on an external monitor. constantly hearing woes from gamers on pc laptops. get a job!kingsteven
    • also the resolution/ fps argument is moot on macs and i'm sure apple breaking in to the gaming world is a concern of theirs def. not good thing vs pro designkingsteven
    • lol yes and I'm not defending the tab. It's just such a low-demand game that nobody playing high-level is worried about it. It's all settings.garbage
    • I play on a Switch / 72" tv and managed to beat a pro that I caught 1v1 casual. I knew their setup because they're a popular youtuber that..garbage

    I'm officially Apple-less.

    The last Apple product I was using is now out of my life.

    I switched from Mac to Windows a few years ago.
    I switched from iPhone to Android last year.

    Well I just dumped iTunes for Music Bee this week.

    I was using iSync and iTunes to put music on my new xperia phone and I was struggling with lots of fuckups. Then i discovered that i can sync my phone directly in Music Bee! Like an iPhone in iTunes! And it works perfectly!

    Music Bee is an open source software. Way much better than iTunes! Fully customisable, you can changed everything in it as you wish. You can also add lyrics, upcoming shows, access wikipedia of an artist, see the upcoming albums...

    Feeling like Apple has abandoned you? You're not alone.

    https://www.bloomberg.com/news/a…

    "Interviews with people familiar with Apple's inner workings reveal that the Mac is getting far less attention than it once did. They say the Mac team has lost clout with the famed industrial design group led by Jony Ive and the company's software team. They also describe a lack of clear direction from senior management, departures of key people working on Mac hardware and technical challenges that have delayed the roll-out of new computers."
