The thing is, not many people _still_ have those old PowerMacintosh computers from the early ninties. And I wrote PowerMac, where the first one was the PowerMac G4 (Yikes!). But yes, I could have written PowerMac G4 & G5. But to add all the older ones (the Quadra's, Performa's etc...) I would need at least 15 poll options, and I can have max. 10. And to put things like MacBook and iBook together is impossible, since its two different things. Like iMac PPC and iMac Intel (even G3 and G5 iMac is a big difference!).
