Steve Jobs demos Apple Macintosh, 1984



Uploaded by: tranquileyedotnet
Video Description:
Demo of the first Apple Macintosh by Steve Jobs, January 1984, in front of 3000 people. Andy Hertzfeld captured the moment quite well in his retelling: "Pandemonium reigns as the demo completes. Steve has the biggest smile I've ever seen on his face, obviously holding back tears as he is overwhelmed by the moment. The ovation continues for at least five minutes before he quiets the crowd down."

your a fool. for 24 years ago, that technology was undeniably the most groundbreaking thing ever. research other personal computers and compare size, weight, etc. the speed and detail a mac had back then was similar to how it still is today, the best.
