G3

My first job was at this great little Graphic Design company who granted me a pretty new frosted white and blue G3! This is when the curse began. All the macs seemed to work fine until i went anywhere near them. One particular memory i have from this time was walking up to one of my co-workers computers and his mac went blank... he shook his mouse, turned on and off his monitor, tapped his keys, and nothin' but a blank screen staring back at us. Even the little power button light was off. As soon as i turned around and took 2 steps away, it turned back on again in the same state it was in before it shut off! This was one example of the things that would happen throughout my experience with Macs.

As for my G3, after a year of wondering why my mac was so slow, and getting my ass kicked at Unreal Tournament, i was finally able convince one of the guys that i really wasn't THAT bad at 1st person shooters, and that my mac really was just slow... cause of the problem? Bad RAM. When the RAM was replaced, I kicked everyone's ass in record time in Unreal since i was actually playing in real time. I decided to leave my mark there, and never played again.
