Today is January 24, 1984 and Steve Jobs recently took the stage at Apple's annual shareholder meeting in Carlertino, California and revealed the Macintosh, is a personal computer that best represents the Apple founder's idea of what a personal computer should be.
The new Apple Computer is expected to be unveiled two days after his shocking Super Bowl announcement And you are ready to launch the market.
We had already met with Macintosh a few months ago, in October the company showed us the details of its device, but it was here today, January 24, 1984, when we were finally able to see a device that aims to convert your computers.
Steve Jobs has produced a lightweight personal computer, of just 7.71 pounds, of bag, put it on the table and light it. But just then, and in one of the tasty moments of the event, he grabbed a 3.5-inch flake disk from his coat pocket and put it on a Macintosh.
We can say, without fear of being wrong, that be the device itself presented only. Reproducing a series of images on its 9-inch screen saw a new graphical interface, drawing system, word processor, calculator and chess game. And as a final climax, Macintosh himself spoke to those present, these being his sentences:
"Hi, I'm Macintosh. It's nice to get out of that bag.
Since I'm not used to public speaking, I'd like to share with you how I thought my first encounter with an IBM computer: I WOULDN'T HAVE A COMPUTER STYLE SHOULD BE CLOSED!
Obviously, I can talk, but right now I just like to sit and listen. Afterwards, with great pride I introduce a man who once was like a father to me … STEVE JOBS"
