| The most interesting Mac Classic graffiti | |
| Posted by: pinto_guy on 2020-03-21 18:16:15 As I was pulling another Mac Classic from my collection to repair, I noticed a faint writing on it. Upon further inspection, here is what I found (photo attached). I usually start my repairs with a thorough clean of the case, but I think I'll leave this charming graffiti. I might even retr0brite the case to improve the contrast. I wonder whether Anne and Rog ended up connecting...  | |

Or maybe 'Roy.' Fun fun. Part of me wishes that there was more personality in some of the builder/inspector/maker marks on Macs. I'm recalling an episode of TopGear where they went to all the old factories for Lotus, Jensen, and TVR. The TVR factory had some hand-scribbled artwork by 'Nobby' which was not surprisingly naughty. I suppose that would be too coarse for the corporate culture of Apple... | |
