I imagine computer class wasn't easy for her...

It's plausible that the school she was attending still used such old machines for word processing tasks and the like. Though it is unusual that a prestigious boarding school wouldn't regularly upgrade their computing equipment, if you attended any school in the 1990s you were bound to come across an outdated terminal somewhere in the building. I don't think this was Ivanka's personal computer, just a random Mac she typed an essay on for a class assignment.

 

 

Yeah those SE's were made until 1990, so she could conceivably typed the essay in like 1994-1996 when she was like 13 to 15 making the computer only 4 to 6 years old. 

 

I remember our computer lab having Apple IIe/IIC's and Mac 128 and 512 computers even in 1991 when I graduated. Some of the IIe's were probably at least 10 years old.

Looks like somebody finally bought it on July 29th for 250 dollars.
