That was, and still is, in itself and at the time, pretty much as
astounding as anything I've ever seen for home use.


I've had Macs die for the simple reason that a battery went dead. Most PCs
don't die, they used to make you reenter the configuration in the BIOS.
(Nowadays they just detect everything.)

I've got a Mac that won't boot even with a new PRAM battery.
