Everyone has decorated memory about his or her first computer like her or his first car. Mine was the Power Macintosh 6100/66AV from Apple Computer in 1995. The flat beige box was quite expensive compared to the common x86 towers of that era, but I have been happy with that for 7 years without any extra cost while my friends’ other Wintel machines were rapidly hacked, thrown and replaced.
Initially installed the System 7, it has turned lovely. Using Chicago typeface as a default operating system font, every text on the bespoke Trinitron display appeared clearly legible. In 1997, two years later from its arrival on my desk, Apple released the whole new version of the renamed operating system, the Mac OS 8. Then, besides its technical improvement for the last processors from the PowerPC alliance and its Platinum look, Apple replaced good old Chicago with newly designed Charcoal typeface at that moment.
