Just sent a request to Apple’s recycling program to take away my 1998 Yosemite G3 tower. It still runs fine. I installed Mac OS X Server 1.2 on it. Its just so old and slow.

I bought my HP LaserJet 2100TN back in 2000 and it has served me well all these many years. I came home today and found it non-responsive. The lights are telling me that there is a “Service Error”. That’s not very helpful.…
