Also > old Apple Powermacs from the 1980s (the tiny ones) Except that Power Macs were available from 1994 until 2006.

  Obviously didn't (and doesn't) knew the name of the product? That makes it even more believable, not less.

    I agree. The only reason I knew anything about the hardware of the classic Macs at the time was that I was an Amiga user, and Macs were occasionally dragged in on the periphery of the war of the 68k based machines that was primarily an Amiga vs Atari thing. Beyond knowing it too had a 68k, that it had laughable small screen and was monochrome and cost a ridiculous amount, that was it. That was despite hanging out at the local computer store every few days, and reading every computer magazine I got my hands on (I can thank Commodore Computing International for a lot the earliest English I learned) Most PC users of the era certainly had no reason to know much more about Apple than the name Mac, and know it was some other computer.
