### Comment:
So what was it in Oct 2003 that convinced you to buy? 
  
 [Here's what was happening that day](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Current_events/2003_October_28). Some of it feels weirdly familiar...

### REPLY:
It wasn't inspired by current events. I remembered the Classics they donated to my high school, and thought that was a really smart business decision, having kids that otherwise wouldn't have computer experience 'grow up knowing Mac'.

### END.
