Holding the Command key (aka the Apple key) and pressing Tab will cycle through your open applications. It's easier to Cmd-Tab if you are Copy (Cmd-C) and Pasting (Cmd-V) to and from various applications.

I have a PowerBook 520 that was upgraded with a PowerPC chip--I still haul it out occasionally to use an old version of PageMaker.

I still have a Mac 128K with System 1.0. I don't really use it for anything, but it runs :-)

I've got a Powerbook 5300cs I use to store images from my digital camera on the road, and to play old games.
I have 2 mac portables in storage too, i think....

Still got an ol' ||c. It once made a loud pop and poured smoke. After being left alone for a few hours I plugged it back in and it STILL worked. They just don't make em like they used to.

Rev B Bondi Blue iMac, circa 1998. Still up and running 24-7 (Panther).
Up until a couple of years ago I also still had my trusty Mac Classic. 4 meg of RAM and a 40 meg hard drive running System 7.1 Great little machine, it served me very well for a very long time (seven years!)

My trusty Mac Plus is still going.....
Although he's more than a little yellow around the edges!

My oldest Mac that still runs is the Mac 128k. My oldest Apple that still runs is the Apple ][c (with original carrying bag!) I got it at a garage sale (with printer!) for $15. Woohoo!

Both in working order, of course.

My 68k collection: Apple Lisa with Macintosh expansion, IIci, Powerbook 180, Quadra 700 and Quadra 950. The Quadra 700 is my favourite. They're all running and the Quadra's were even online.

I have a ton of old stuff. I have probably 3 'Plus'es, an SE 30, at least one functioning 'Classic' (I'd love to get a 'Color Classic'), a couple 'LC's (including an LC II), and I've also got a functioning Apple II Plus with a functioning graphics tablet (including software)
I'm a bit of a collector.

My father has my old Performa 6220CD. Still does all his locally and backs up all his files on a 3.5 Floppy disk

Somewhere in my parents' basement is an original 128k Mac, purchased pre-retail through the University of Michigan. The original external floppy drive and the original dot-matrix printer are there, too, and they all still worked the last time I dug them out. That little machine got me through college (at Cleveland State, not Michigan), but I'm willing to give it up to a good home!! I still have the original MacWrite and MacDraw floppies, too. Others in the working collection are a IIsi, a Performa 575 and a Performa 6400. Any takers?

My first Mac was a Powerbook 160C. It's been in a closet since around 1997 or 1998 but I fired it up a couple of months ago and it was still running.

LC III (Elsie) still functions, though my Dad took her to school, but I think she still works. I suppose theoretically that makes it the Performa 6200CD then (Jem'Hadar). The only Mac to ever fully die on me was my Mac Classic. And considering that was just about a year ago, I think that's pretty good.
