Comment on I asked Microsoft's image creator to create "Godzilla in a 512k Mac game" and while this is not what I asked for, I can't help but be impressed.

  Not 512k game, 512K Mac game.

  Jeez, kids today need to know their computer history.

    I never used a Mac so it’s not my computer history

    See, I’m not that old, my middle school typing classes were on Mac Classics not ancient hardware like the 512K.

      Ok, but the 512K was kind of a game changer. It turned the Mac from a novelty to a competitive machine. Which made GUIs more popular, which in turn led to Windows as well, and Linux desktops and everything else.

        I was just kidding, I think the 512k came out 4ish years before the classic.

    So just saying, I’d call that a “Mac 512k game”, since it’s called a Mac 512k. Word order matters. I’ll admit, I’m 41, and I’d never heard of a 512k before.
