"Macs just aren't computers anymore"

Guess it depends on whether one has a static or dynamic definition of what consititutes a computer. Nothing is just a computer anymore, if your definition stopped at the point of 4.77 mhz, two floppy (or 5 megabyte hard drive) IBM PC-XT's. that was back when one could enter 20 cells of data Lotus spreadsheet and then watch the last 5 or so pop up on the monitor cause it could not keep up with the speed of manual entry.

If your defintion became static at the point of a TRS-80 or a Commodore with a cassette tape drive, the XT wasn't a computer anymore.

If your definition stopped with an Apple ][e, the Apple Lisa was not just a computer anymore.

Gotta move with the times :).
