Looks like it's just me :-)
I think this is the first genuine message I've ever
received from this group!

I still regularly use a Performa 475 (maxed with a
full 68040/33Mhz/36MB). I use Excel 4 and Filemaker
2&3 mainly for sports data and general lists etc.
For more taxing stuff (photos, web) I have an 8500/G3
and a few others that don't get used much.
Biggest problem with old macs is web browsing.
Have kept an SE30 for nostalgic games of Dark Castle
and Crystal Quest.

Also use a large range of machines at work from Quadra
840 through to Intel Mac Mini (usually running XP as I
just can't get into OS X).

As for old s/w I wish Apple would make 7.6 freely
available.
