Mac Collection in Dubai

Just by looking at this image, you can get an idea of ​​how careful the collection that Jimmy Grewal is, has in Dubai. It has focused on Apple computers, the Macs, so modern that we now have as the 16-inch MacBook Pro, face machines from thirty years ago. Best of all, each of these computers work perfectly.

Mr. Grewal says that at present it is very difficult to find old Macs in Dubai and even parts for those he already owns. Dubai has never been one of the priorities of the American company, and the stores that were in this land are already closed. So you must import everything you want to join to your collection. That's why you've bought Macs from everywhere, from the US to Australia to Europe. His go-to places to grab any device worth being in this room are eBay and Facebook Marketplace, and he relies on word of mouth to give him clues about potential deals.

His taste and fascination for Macs comes from when he was at Duke University (the same as Tim Cook). When he graduated, he started working at Microsfot and that's where he was able to make friends with some Apple engineers. We assume that is when his hobby became almost an obsession.

A very, very complete Mac collection

Did things well because He bought shares in the company and thanks to this, this spectacular collection can now be financed. Grewal himself says that if it were not so, he could not have achieved everything he has so far, which is not little:

  • 75 computers in total. It owns the Newton MessagePads and Apple printers. The most amazing thing is that it includes almost every major Mac ever made. It has several models of Apple II y machines like Lisa and Apple-1 which is very rare and highly coveted.

He also gives a series of tips to those who want to get started in this world:

  • "There is have a lot of interest to dedicate money and time to make it worthwhile.
  • "It is important be selective; to start with a goal to focus on.
  • «Once achieved, you can decide if you want to expand further ".
