The 6502 chip in the Apple II had 3,500 transistors. The M1 Max chip in the latest MacBook Pros has 57 billion. That just blows my mind.Stat Monitor Repairman said:

It's interesting to note that photos of controversial events in the 60s are often shown in b/w by some sources to make them seem older than they are, even though color photos of the same events are generally available.
That's based on the dimensions I got off of wikipedia. I think it was 3.1x9.7x10.5. Looks about like the size of the enclosure based on the pics.The Fife said:
Is that the hard drive itself or the entire enclosure? I was going to compare it (total enclosure) to the volume of actual rooms here at home just for fun.

My Apple II+ I had in HS allowed me to type up term papers and debate briefs on Apple Writer and do grades for my Physics teacher and a couple of other science teachers in Visicalc. My current MBP could do all that a little quicker, cleaner and easier (not to mention with portability) but I'm not sure I'm all that much more productive. Without the use of other peripherals and services (internet, online text, email, etc.) I'd still have to type stuff up, print it out, and hand deliver it. THAT is where the tech bar has been significantly raised, at least in terms of office type applications.
umm. Why not use a picture of a mastercraft today?Stat Monitor Repairman said:
okay but the x26 is equally large. The evolution of mastercraft from the 1985 stars and stripes to the 2022 X26 is remarkable in itself.Stat Monitor Repairman said:
