This is kinda what this one looks like… wow! Some stuff is the same but some stuff is so different

Don’t forget that Apple didn’t invent the GUI. That was a Xerox project, and Steve Jobs and co. basically copied and improved on it over the years.
Oh yes, love that sordid story 🤙🏼
I need to watch this, ty ty
Truth be told, it wasn’t exactly theft because Xerox PARC was more than willing to demonstrate their projects for anyone and there was no NDA required. The story of Xerox corporate ignoring the brilliant work being done at Palo Alto because it didn’t fit their business model is a tale as old as time.
I am here for the entire thread. Who else went into shocking levels of credit card debt in university to buy one of these? Just me?
Oh shoot, I remember this! These were the best!
I had the Power Mac G4 in graphite. It was a gift from a collection of relatives. 😁
Beauty!
This becoming a hellthread? 😂😅😂
No way. Retro thread.
This one
This is old… yo what is it?
The Macintosh II. We had tons of those in my school.
Wow! 💾 drives!
3.5” disks perfect for:
- Oregon trail
- math blaster
- where in the world is Carmen San Diego
Although I think I played the latter on an IBM.
I need to get Oregon trail!
We rocked the iiGs
We had Apple IIes in high school. Remember Print Shop?
Oh woooooow I would spend weekends on print shop
No joke
It would take a whole weekend just to print out a Happy Birthday banner.
True. And it was worth it.
Precisely. Doesn’t get better than that
And the perforated printing paper that was connected like a folded roll of toilet paper… priceless
Dot matrix screeching death!
And the printer ribbon runs out in the middle of the job so the banner just kind of fades out at the end…
Print Shop was mind blowing at the time. And now we have OpenAI.
It’s just like perfection, flawless too.
