just try to think of any other computer — any other device — that is still being sold a quarter of a century after it was launched.

Dell Dimensions are still being sold........

Thinkpad laptops are still being sold.

Playstations are still being sold

Heck even Sony's Walkman is still being sold.

There are a lot of electronic products that are still being sold a quarter of a century later using the same name branding.

Nice list, but I will note that the statement you quoted didn't state that the Mac was the only "computer" being sold with the same branding 25 years later.

Also, while I'm perfectly fine with modern portable music players and video game consoles being included as they are very specialized computing devices* I do think the original statement is referring to personal computers in the traditional sense.

* While writing this I do wonder if that would include the original Sony Walkman which simply was a simple cassette player with batteries. Sure, there would be some microprocessing on the 1979 unit but even that stretches my imagination by calling it a "computer." And did the Walkman ever stop production when CDs became commonplace and the Sony Discman became their most popular portable music player? As far as I'm aware the Walkman branding only came back into play with the age of portable "MP3" music players.
