Retro Mac Plus Winner

[wdw_]

I received my Mac Plus two days ago. It's great. Thanks ScottW!

I would have notified you all that it came sooner, but I've been very sick and I've just now felt well enough to get back on the computer.

Anyway, THANKS!

I remember when the computer lab at my high school got an Apple Lisa.

It was so expensive that only the teacher was allowed to run it, and she really did not know what to do with it's Macintosh-like GUI and mouse.

It was something like 8 years later before I got my own Power Mac 7200. (I had a stupid Kapro DOS PC in the interrum...)

My wife. I told her to pick a random number between 1 & 24 (or however many pages of posts existed) and a number between 1 & 15 for the number for posts on a page. The two numbers produced the winner.

The funny thing is, she had no clue why I was asking her to pick the numbers until afterwords.

Anyhow, figured that method was just as random as any other method.
