::EDIT:: Tried to clarify the rules a bit.
With all of the talk of new systems, with new features, and bigger Graphics and ,bla, bla, bla, I think it is time to refresh our memories to some old Favorite (or not so favorite) Macintosh computers. The recent post of the 128k image also sparked the idea into my head for this post.
Anyway,
Every other day ( or close to it) I will post up 2 pictures of a classic Macintosh computers. The first one will be an easy picture to ID (sometimes cropped), and the second an obscure portion of the case or screen (most always cropped).
Points system.
Points will be rewarded for correctly guessing the pictures with the overall value displayed above the picture. I (and others watching most likely) will keep track of the points.
If people are not interested, this thread will die off, and we will have to go without.
Notes on the Game
There will only be 10 sets of 2 pictures, Since Apple had a limited number of computers and case designs, and the game would get old if it were to extend over that point. Also to note, You may see a similar chassis 2 times. I will do my best to leave obscure clues as to what exact system it is if the 1st round of guesses turn out be wrong for a particular case. But uncertainty is part of the fun right!
Rules of the game
- Each person gets only 1 guess .
- You can only make 1 guess per round (meaning you have to pick the easy or obscure picture).
- If you accidentally guess 2 times (or for both systems) in your post, only the first name listed counts, and you will be excluded from the following round of pictures
- Any edited posts will be excluded (even if you are correct)
Again only one guess per round
You can only post a 2nd answer if the round is again "open to all".
I can't give anything as a reward, but you can link to this thread in your signature and post up bragging rights on Macrumors for winning.
First Up EASY
1 point for the first person to correctly ID the Exact system
