The Macs won't old school at the time. They were high-end workstations for anyone who didn't need Unix and wanted a GUI that worked.
More than high end, low-mid end for journalists, book writing and editing people, graphic designers, magazine producers and whatnot. Really high end machines were the Sun and SGI ones.
true. the book was written before Windows was released.
Right. I just mean that macs running pre-Darwin Mac OS seem an odd choice.
