This color and a few others are only available in the $1,499 and up model and not the $1,299 iMac. These are all positive associations for me. The back has space shuttle/NASA flight suit vibes that I love, and the front is a calmer tone that makes me think of orange cream soda. Blue, green, pink, silver, yellow, orange, or purple? It’s great hearing not only hearing which color people are choosing, but why! The initial reaction is something like “Wow, color is back!” or “Ohhh, those are so pretty.” Next, the question of which color everyone would choose comes up. Introducing the new iMac lineup to my friends has been so much fun too. Computers are utilities, but the new finishes allow for personality and expression. Twenty years later, it’s now possible for me to buy a very modern version of what I saw then.īringing color back to the iMac is wonderful. That was the computer I hoped my granddad would buy. By then, the iMac had lost its color in favor of the cold silver aluminum finish just like my first Apple computer, the 2009 13-inch MacBook Pro.Īll that’s to say that I’ve never actually owned a Macintosh splashed with color, but my nostalgia for one is strong based on that poster. I didn’t actually see an Apple computer in person until around 2008 when my high school populated our library with iMacs.
We ended up taking home a Hewlett-Packard personal computer that day. I didn’t actually see an iMac, just a colorful poster that caught my 10-year-old eye… My granddad was shopping for his first computer after the college where he taught started requiring internet access at home. My first exposure to the Mac was around 2000 at a local computer shop in Georgia.
