Makes sense. The Macintosh could talk to me, my TV can’t.

I’m pretty sure that Mac had 68k.

To be fair, Crystal Quest looks like shit on a 4k tv and looks great on my Macintosh SE.

We’re going backwards

Ah, but what about 8k? Checkmate atheists

@nonfedimemes ok but also 68k mac (good middle ground(???))

@nonfedimemes One single line of a 4K monitor needs 32K memory, and there are 2160 of those. The original Mac's screen (b/w, 512*384 pixel) used only 24K memory.

@nonfedimemes
TV: KKKK
MAC:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

@nonfedimemes These two values aren't directly comparable: the Mac's K signifies 1024, while the TV's K means 960.

@WLivi
960 * 4 = 3840
1024 * 128 = 131,072
so the mac still more ks than a 4k tv

@nonfedimemes The chart still gives the right impression, yeah; it's just not quite as neat and tidy as it appears.

@nonfedimemes @1Bit Accesibility Description: A bar chart, titled “Number of Ks”. Left bar is small, labeled “Ultra HD 4K TV (2018). Right bar is tall and labeled “Original Macintosh 128K (1984)”.

@nonfedimemes at least I have more Ps than either of those in fact a whole 1080!!!
