Hello, My name is Macintosh I was born on January 24, 1984 Apple makes me and I am the most advanced computer in the world. Heres a little on my history.I was different. First, there was the mouse, just like Lisa had.On January 24, 1984, Apple announced the Macintosh to their Board of Directors and to the world. And the computer world has never been the same.A year earlier, Apple had unveiled the $10,000 Lisa, the first business computer with a graphical user interface and a mouse. The Lisa never caught on, but Apple was enamored of the concept.It was an era of conformity. Although you could still buy an Apple II, TRS-80, Commodore, or CP/M computer, MS-DOS was the de facto standard.Apple made a bold move, thinking different long before it became an ad slogan. And the rest, as they say, is history, a history Low End Mac examines in a series of articles, each covering one year in the life of the Macintosh.
