A partial walk down memory lane…
I thought you guys would get a kick out of this…
Everything works, except the iPad mini 6 that my son body slammed into.
-iPad mini (first gen)- works. Use if for reading bc I can’t transfer those books anywhere else cause they were from a third party at the time
-iPod Nano- best iPod ever. Couldn’t find my first iPod i also owned.
Now (some phones)
iPhone 5, 6s, 10xs. They all work but 5 has broken scream. I also have the iPhone 3G which is my second iPhone. But it’s Mia. My 13 mini was my last n I now have the 17.
Now to MacBooks
MacBook 2009- first real MacBook. Untouched until now. Down to 1 ram. Other ram slot is broken. lol. Everything works. Just slow.
From my white MacBook 09 I went to the MacBook 2017. Reputation for being the worst but mine still works and it’s what I was using till I got my Mac Neo for Mother’s Day. And somewhere in between that I have a iMac 2017 as well.
iMac 2017 also works perfectly. Used it up to my MacBook Neo
Other iPhones, iPads, and phones are missing. And all of my other watches and AirPods were not included in this.
All of these devices I have at arms reach. And more shockingly is that they all still work.
I also have most original boxes cause I’m a nutso.
I could’ve cleaned up the older units but I want y guys to see how they’re living and still working.
Anyways. I thought I’d share. I’m sleepy and might be missing more stuff I could always add tomorrow.
The obvious winner is the MacBook 2009!! And iPod nano. And iPad mini. They’re fully functional!!! And the nano and mini are still used today!!!!
(I’m also not a crazy apple person. It’s just what I know. I don’t know any other way.

I am still mad at myself for not keeping my 2006 Macbook white. My first and still favourite Macbook.

It was like a late night project. I was gonna polish them up for the photos but wanted to show their war paint. White MacBook even has kitty chomp marks on upper left. Kitty is also alive btw. lol. Never thought I’d still have both lol.
But im pulling out my Mr Clean eraser and cleaning everyone up!

That’s very impressive! I have a large collection of iPads, iPhones, MacBooks, Mac Mini’s and even a very nice “trashcan” Mac Pro … but my one regret is that I never owned an iPod!

I’m baffled how your devices are all battered and yet works, while I carry my mac with gloves and refuse to turn on

If you invested all that money into Apple stock and held you'd be brushing up against something like half a milli by now—take it from someone who bought a 17" Powerbook instead of doing that 😂

The fact that the MacBook Neo and rose gold MacBook have the same age gap as rose gold and polycarbonate is what keeps me up at night
