When collectors keep products they feel will be worth a lot of money in time or want to keep a piece of history intact, most times its best to keep these products in their original packaging as this increases the products value. When someone has been careful enough to keep a 20th Anniversary Macintosh sealed for ten years and then it’s been decided to open it after all that time, how does that make you feel? This topic is wide open for discussion, but is it right or wrong?

There will be different views on that question, some will feel it’s a waste keeping a product that does nothing and others (normally collectors) will cry at the sight of this mint piece of history being touched. You can see an unboxing video below this post; it shows the owners unbox a piece of Apple history.

Although you cannot do much these days with such an old Apple Mac, unboxing of vintage equipment like this is very rare and something that has been shared with the world thanks to the YouTube video below. This new in box 20th Anniversary Macintosh cost a massive $7,500 back in 1997 and with that kind of price, it must have been hard to just leave it sitting untouched for more than ten years.

Take your time to watch the 23-minute video; don’t skip any as this product has waited ten years to see daylight. If it hurts too much to watch, then we understand but remember to share your view on opening products that have not been touched for so long.
