 Oooohhh, cute. Wicked-P has its moments. :)

 I never had one of those. My first Macky-box was a black Os 9.2
(9.6?) laptop that I gave to the wife. She rather liked it. She liked
some of the games on it, too. 

 I think it still works.

 Anyway, she'd never use it so there's no real point. 

 But O.P.P. does look like fun.
