Not Quite OSX, but...

I figure this is as good a place as any to ask. A friend gave me an old iMac. I keep hearing about how great Macs are, but I can't really afford one right now, so I took the free old one. It's running OS 8.6.

Is there anything I can do with it, or any place I can get software (freeware)for it? I can't even install iTunes on this thing. Most Mac users I talk to say I need OSX, but that's not really an option (at least not a purchase option). Is this just a colorful desk ornament?

TOPICS: Mac OS X

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
