This one's for you, Steve!!

I know Yummy's really been hit hard by the death of Steve Jobs so I wanted to make his suffering just that more tolerable by supplying this small sampling of Apple products that are owned by the four people in this household.

The grand total currently stands at:

1 - 15" MacBook Pro (bought today)
1 - 13" Black MacBook
2 - 13" White MacBooks
2 - iPads
3 - iPod Classics
1 - iPhone (original; now used as an iPod touch)
1 - iPhone 4
2 - iPhone 4S(es)
1 - Apple TV

For you, Yumcha! And to prove my generosity knows no limits, I share with him and indeed all of you, just a small taste of the fruits in our basket.

Hackintosh? Isn't a Hackintosh a PC running Mac OSX? This looks like a normal mac unless you get some bad ass aftermarket case.

Yes it is.

That is a Mac Pro case, it used to have G5 processors. I ripped out everything and put an i7, Gigabyte motherboard, 16 GB of RAM, SSD, 2 other hard drives and an ATI 4850.

It triple boots OS X, Windows 7 and Ubuntu. The only way you'd know it wasn't a real Mac is if you cold-booted it and noticed the graphic menu with the three symbols or opened the case up

It was terrible when it was a G5. I'm not too familiar with the newer systems.

On this one that I rebuilt, it is VERY quiet.

Let's see what I've bought over the years (since some has been given to family or stolen)

-MacBook Pro 15-inch (original died so Apple Store gave me a brand new one two weeks ago)
-Mac mini
-Magic Mouse
-Magic Trackpad
-Wireless Keyboard
-iPod 5G Video
-iPod nano 3G/4G/5G/6G
-iPod shuffle
-(2) iPod touch 1G
-Apple TV 2
-iPhone 4

And I had an eMac, but I gave it to my high school's IT program (vocational school) once I got my mini. Although now I wanna just give the mini to my dad to get rid of his crap eMachines PC and so I can set up my MacBook Pro as my main computer to clear up my desk a little.
