Thank you! This is interesting. I’d go to a Google/wikipedia/youtube rabbit hole now

Oh man yeah this is true

I don’t recall apricot and olivetti. But the other I have vague memories especially the Macintosh one. Compaq doesn’t count as it is still existing.

So what’s the story man? Come on, some of us are invested already.

Apricot? So there were 2 pc makers with connection to fruit? Or Macintosh is not yet Apple then?

That’s it! It must be astrophage!

I would support this

Damn OP. Real or not, I miss this kind of content which until now I haven’t seen in lemmy apart from the legendary poop and bean post, but is plenty on the other site.

You made my day OP. I wish a lot more people post with this level of quality.

I hope you get the right advice and do the right thing. Take care always.
