Seinfeld has 2 computers (that I am aware of) on his show. The 1st one, in the earlier series, appears to be an old Mac. The new one is a silver flat panel type computer, the 20th anniversary Mac, I think.

Can anyone identify these 2 Macs...are they Macs?

The first one was a Plus or an SE 30, can't remember which. The second one was a Duo 280 within the Duo Dock with an Apple 15" monitor. The third was a TAM.

What do I win?

A trip to the General Discussion forum, where this thread probably belongs. ;)

DAMN! You beat me. I'm impressed.
Any other Seinfeld brain busters?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's an SE/30.
We've been working on the first and second season DVD's for the past couple of weeks.

Love the show, but getting sick of it because of all the different languages we have to work on.

What about that low, flat one? It was either a Quadra/Centris 610, a Quadra 660, or a PowerMac 6100. Or was that the Duo?

Ah. According to this site (http://applemuseum.bott.org/sections/sightings.html), the Macs appearing on Seinfeld have been an SE (you can tell it's an SE because of the horizontal grooves on the face, the Plus and Classic were both smooth), a Duo in a dock with a 15" monitor on top, a PowerMac 6100, and a TAM. Also it says that there was a MacWarehouse catalog that made an appearance.

in the episode where Cosmo decides he doesn't want mail anymore. Before he seals off his box, he presents Jerry with several catalogs and spam-type stuff. one of which was a MacWarehouse mag, which he derides.
