Brilliant. I've missed your photography and poetry the past couple of months. My very elderly iMac gave up the ghost back in March after eleven years without a breath of trouble. 🥺 It's taken this long to arrange getting a new one. Just got the new iMac set up yesterday evening! 😎
Well, at least you got it now! That is awesome! I wish you a lot of luck with your new purchase and I know it will give you many years of service.
Eleven years?
Wow!
I hope you are having the most amazing day!

Thanks.
Yeah, eleven years – and it had two major lightening-strike power surge hits in that time. The PowerMac which I had before that lasted twelve years. I know someone who had an Apple IIc that lasted nearly fifteen years. I have an iPhone 4.5 that's still working. My son has a gen1 iPad that works as well as it did new.
Meanwhile, my son's Lenovo ThinkPad crapped out after not quite four years.
Oh! Wow. Well, I was happier before Lenovo bought them out. Progress.
Who did Lenovo buy out?
Long ago, when they bought out IBM's personal computer division. Maybe 2006 or 05?
