Yes but I knew nothing about computers then so I have no idea if they were actually good or I was just as stupid as current day iPhone users

Mac OS 8 and 9 had nice user interfaces but that was about all. The internals of the OS were a mess and it was generally a pain to use with few programs. Apple hardware has always been shitty and overpriced.
Best retro computers are DEC Alpha machines with OpenVMS or SGI MIPS machines with IRIX. Amiga OS on PPC was decent, and HP-UX on PA-RISC and Solaris on SPARC were mediocre. Everything else in the history of computers was and is bottom of the barrel horse shit. Change my mind.

when you could do nothing and it was a shitty closed system?
much better since it is based on a standard architecture, but designers at apple seem to be aliens

Very briefly.
>Amiga OS on PPC was decent
You mean AmigaOS 4?? It was far from "decent". I hope you mean OS >3.9, this was never PowerPC, only m68k with libraries to use PPC for PPC compiled programs natively.

You mean when they were 90 days away from bankruptcy after years of selling dozens of variations of the same damn beige box for the sole purpose of fucking up price matching?

Yes

Hardware-wise? The last time I remember them being good was with the Powerbook G4 aluminium design. Software-wise the only good operating system Apple have ever made is OSX. Its predecessors are garbage.
