Astazi se implinesc 35 de ani de la aparitia primul Mac. Steve Jobs scoate dintr-o punga primul Macintoh in data de 24 Ianuarie 1986 la Flint Center din Cupertino California in timp ce multimea incepe sa aplaude.
“Hello, I’m Macintosh. It sure is great to get out of that bag.
Unaccustomed as I am to public speaking, I’d like to share with you a maxim I thought of the first time I met an IBM mainframe: NEVER TRUST A COMPUTER YOU CAN’T LIFT!
Obviously, I can talk, but right now I’d like to sit back and listen. So, it is with considerable pride that I introduce a man who’s been like a father to me… STEVE JOBS.”
Cu 2 zile inaintea dezvaluirii Apple promova produsul printr-o reclama la Super Bowl XVIII.
