20 Years of Macintosh
As the Superbowl approaches,
we are reminded of this infamous commercial and the 20 year anniversary of the original Macintosh.
Although they flubbed here and there, kudos to Apple for their true innovation over the past two decades: from a usable GUI windows interface, the first widespread use of the mouse and desktop publishing, great software that works intuitively the first time, and now to iPod/iTunes. I salute thee.
Here is the
first Macintosh press release, sent out on January 24th, 1984.
Here is
MacWorld's interview of Steve Jobs regarding the 20th anniversary.
