What would you consider to be the “Golden Era” of Macintosh computing?

BOOST.
THIS.
TOOT.
(Please?)

When I teach seniors how to avoid scams I take all of the Tech out of the conversation. ALL of it. Any mention of tech and the entire session is wasted as the fear of tech is stronger than the fear os being scammed.

However, what I do is show them how to spot when the scam is working on them. strong emotions are key to a phone scam

"If you feel angry"
"If you feel excited"
"If you feel afraid"
"If you feel pressured"
"If you feel rushed"

HANG UP!

The MOOF A DAY collection just passed 50 items.

What's a MOOF? It's a copy-protected Macintosh program, imaged using a flux reader called APPLESAUCE and made bootable in an emulator at Internet Archive.

If you lived through the early black and white macs, this growing collection is going to bring back amazing memories, and make a familiar "BING!"
