A Decade in the Making: The Ultimate Visionary Trilogy
In celebration of Applerok’s 10th Anniversary, we are opening our private vault to offer a once-in-a-decade investment opportunity. The Heritage "X" Bundle is not just a collection of computers; it is a physical timeline of the risks, innovations, and design triumphs that transformed Apple from a niche computer maker into a global cultural icon.
This curated trilogy features three of the most significant machines ever produced, representing the "Experimental," the "Iconic," and the "Refined" eras of Apple.
The Trilogy: What’s Included
1. The Twentieth Anniversary Macintosh (TAM)
• The Crown Jewel: Released in 1997 to celebrate Apple’s 20th year, the TAM was a glimpse into the future. With its slim upright design, integrated Bose sound system, and custom leather palm rests, it remains one of the rarest and most sought-after pieces of functional art in tech history.
• Significance: It predicted the "All-in-One" future of the iMac years before it became the industry standard.
2. The iMac G3 GV (Graphite/Snow Special Edition)
• The Turnaround: The Graphite "GV" (Special Edition) iMac represents the moment Steve Jobs saved Apple. Moving away from the "beige box," this translucent powerhouse brought high-speed FireWire and DVD-ROM technology to the consumer market for the first time.
• Significance: This is the machine that proved computers could be beautiful, friendly, and essential for the creative home.
3. The 2009 Unibody MacBook
• The Modern Blueprint: The 2009 era introduced the world to the "Unibody" construction—carved from a single block of material. This model bridged the gap between the plastic past and the sleek, metal future we know today.
• Significance: It set the industrial design language for every MacBook Pro and Air released over the last 15 years.
Collector’s Bundle Features
• Museum-Grade Condition: Each unit has been hand-selected from our premium stock, professionally detailed, and verified for operational integrity.
• Anniversary Exclusivity: This bundle is being released specifically for the Applerok 10th Anniversary and will not be restocked in this configuration.
• Investment Potential: As "legacy" Apple hardware continues to rise in value at major auction houses, these three models represent the most stable and high-growth assets for serious collectors.
