Let's list those apples! :)
:O200: :O200: +many more risc, x86, m68k, 8bit, vax
Nothing that exciting, a couple of LCs, a couple of LC475s, a II, a IIsi. I've seen pictures of HUGE hoards of machines and it seems that since Steve's death some prices have been going stratospheric. Like insane thousands of dollars for Apple ][s and Lisas.

I have:

Mac Mini (PowerPC 1.42GHz, 1GB RAM, MacOS X 10.5) - system in storage, was my media centre machine until last year.
Mac Mini (Core 2 Duo 1.66GHz, 4GB RAM, MacOS X 10.5 and Windows XP) - system in daily use.

That's it...

I've sometimes thought about buying a newer one, but to be honest Apple's recent obsession with glueing and soldering everything down puts me off.

Posting this from my 13" MacBook Pro, model "early 2011". I upgraded the RAM and replaced the disk with an SSD and it still works just fine for me.
To accentuate the special identity of the IRIS 4D/70, Silicon Graphics' designers selected a new color palette. The machine's coating blends dark grey, raspberry and beige colors into a pleasing harmony. ( IRIS 4D/70 Superworkstation Technical Report )
I did forget a few. Two 12" AlBooks, a 17" DLSD PowerBook G4, two G4 minis and a 9600.

PowerBook G4 (Aluminum, 15", 1.5GHz)
PowerBook G4 (Titanium, 1GHz)
No-name PPC Mac clone
Performa 631CD
Centris 610
SE/30

Everything is running an appropriate version of Classic Mac OS except the AlBook, which is running Debian, and the SE/30, which I still need to do an install on. I've also got a Quadra 840AV lined up, I'm just waiting for the seller to find the time to pack it up and send it off...

Watch out with the 840av, those are also subject to extensive corrosion from leaking SMD electrolytics.
(Like everything Apple introduced between 1987 and 1993)
:PI: :O2: :Indigo2IMP: :Indigo2IMP:
Yep. It's known-good from a seller I trust, but I might look at getting it re-capped anyway.

Apple joined the fun-lab with two mcdonald's G3-books, Minerva & Alice , and since then, heat sinks & portable heaters become the last frontier in cyberpunk stories with guinea pigs for my wicked hack experiments; mutation (Alice) and evolution (Minerva), they come into two branches, where hacks override their digital-DNA (aka Forth OpenFirmware, thank you Apple): it doesn't mean they are doorstop now, even if they no longer power-on with macOSX :D
I wish I could enter into the vegetable garden of William Gibson , on the right of a director, to decide how a film is ultimately released for public viewing, but I am not a nor Cyberpunk writer neither a dude in Hollywood , and my English still looks like an old rusty trailer which needs a fix-up, so my personal wonderland begins with a pill ... tumbling down the rabbit hole , where the sky above the router port is the color of television, tuned to a dead channel and some gears still need a debugger there.
I owned an LC475, hacked to be a 68060 gentoo/m68k machine
mac OS 7.5 did no longer power-on, due to the fact I re-programmed the 4 ROMs
because 68060 needs a special support pack in its early bootstrap

that machine was then swapped for a RiscPC/600 machine
that is more useful for my 332 development :D

A/UX on a good 68K machine is still on my wish list
still tempted even if it will probably never happen (it has no real purpose)

I've got a few at home:

PowerBook 540c that a previous owner upgraded to a PPC proc (System 7.5 IIRC - watch it boot at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IqgZujtQ0T4 )
G3 iBook in Teal (OS 9)
G4 Quicksilver (800MHz, 1.5GB RAM, OS 9.2, OS X 10.1, OS X 10.4, Ubuntu 12.04)
G5 PowerMac (Quad G5, 16GB RAM, OS X 10.5)

Here's the older stuff...
Apple:
-IIc
-IIgs
-IIe or II+ or something like that, CPM card, but unknown condition

Macintosh:
-Centris 610, full 68040, just recapped - but bad video memory, recapped slot load cd, centris 660av cover (donor had bad caps or something in the audio, and possibly other issues, but cover wasn't broken like the 610 cover). So it might be on it's way to the recyclers.
-Quadra 700
-Workgroup Server 6150, 66 MHz 601 (6100/66 basically), decapped, waiting for me to finish recapping.
-G3 blue and white, forgot the specs
-G4 took it for free, forgot the specs

I don't remember actually seeing the Happy Mac on that one. I'll have to dig it out and take a look for you.

And Friskie was very proud of her butt. And having it in the middle of everything.

Yes, my cat is also very butt proud.

Ah, convenient timing for a mac post. Me and a buddy picked up 5 mac se computers from a scrap center this past week. Still trying to get one to boot up. Those two floppy drives are slower than dirt. All the hard drives were failing, except for one, which happily booted and then failed 5 minutes later.

There is something picky about the mac formatter or installer, it will not work with non apple drives, so getting a working install onto one of the many scsi disks i have is not working.

There's a patched HDSC Setup floating around that will format non-Apple HDs.

Yeah, that is what I am looking for. Ive run into a bunch of sites giving you patching tools and a list of addresses to change to patch it yourself, it seems like a headache. I just want the darn patched utility. On top of that, until i get the drive working, im running off only 2 800k floppys. Space is limited, everything is in some compressed sit format, which seems like a good idea, but the extraction software is another program i have to put on the disk taking up precious space. I'm running out of floppy disk space just trying to get a minimal base system with the tools and utilities needed to set up a scsi disk.

I found a bunch of maxtor hard drives at the scrapyard today, I might see if any of those are usable and try to get a working hard drive install done tonight.
