“Jack of all trades, master of none, though ofttimes better than master of one”

Happy birthday Macintosh!

I don’t remember seeing this in 1984, but boy when i saw it the first time it never left my mind…
Since my first Macintosh (Apple Macintosh LCII, 1991), i never looked back… thank you Apple!

I can’t help to post another video… this one is from the presentation of the Macintosh done by Steve Jobs in 1984. What a day for the people present!

Update! Forgot to post the first part where Steve Jobs starts the presentation kicking IBM and introducong the 1984 video. I get goose bumps every-time i see this.
