It's like 9/11 never happened. Enjoy a massive gauntlet of nostalgia and cars released around that year:
Aw yeah, gotta remember that log-in username. So beige.
When was the last time you saw an Orange colored Mac?
Got any other major Nostalgia from the year 2000? Post it!

Quiet you.
I figure anything ranging between Sept-ish 1999 to early 2001 counts. Also, you're right about the gateways, but I can't find the actual date they were released.

It's the look of the future! So Aerodynamic! Not those big, boxy old american cars from before!
Seriously though. I can't emphasize how big of a deal the new Taurus was when it came out. I vaguely remember it being treated sort of like how we're treating the new Fusion and Dart, it was so distinct and ahead-of-its-time. Now it's just pure Zeerust.

Yeah, but wasn't that this Taurus?:
By the time the 2000 one came out, Chrysler had been doing the aerodynamic cab-forward design for 8 years.

Back when 'reliability' was Mac's strongest selling point, and back when we thought that it made sense to buy a computer and expect it to be 'your computer' for a long, long time, instead of getting a new one every 2 years like we really ended up doing...

Well, Its still pretty current. It can handle Mac OS X 10.4.11, Can handle ethernet and can do most things people do on their computer even now. Like word, photoshop (yes I use it sometimes for photoshop), etc...

They were the best Macs ever built, in my opinion. It just went downhill, got more expensive, less cutting edge, less customizable, and more annoying afterwards.

If you can't nostalgia from that setlist you don't have a pulse.

The only thing I can remember about Vitamin C is that she was topless in some vampire movie that year.

Dat Fox News report. The Y2K bug was a serious issue and a gigantic dodged bullet, but all I heard on that report was "WARBLGARBL TERRORISTS WARBLGARBL HACKERS WARBLGARBL CYBER PEARL HARBOR WARBLGARBL PANIC AND FLEE AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!1!!11!!!!!1!"
And this was before 9/11.

That would be Dracula 2000. NSFW image available on Google Image Search, since even if I post the page URL here motherfucking Kinja automatically loads the photo.

I remember legitimately hearing (and believing) that hackers were the greatest national security threat to the US, long before we thought that an extremist islamic faction that we put into power would bite back at us.
I have a feeling that if 9/11 hadn't happened, we might have embarked on a much more controlled 'war on hackers' as a followup to the war on drugs.

It would be part of our overarching war on vaguely defined ideas and concepts.

Justifying tax expenditures and legal force against open-ended conflicts instead of changing the system to accommodate new needs, since 1971.

Haha, Blue, omg never again please. I spent a week in Mexico in 2000 and every single morning I would wake up to that song being blasted down at the pool, and then hear it again all day. Along with Lou Bega, and probably the freaking Barbie song, omg make it stop. They did have a fascination with Jamirquai at the time though, which was surprisingly tolerable.

Gateway2000 changed it's name to Gateway on October 31st, 1998. That monitor is circa 1996.
