Steve Jobs introduces the Apple Macintosh for the first time.

Renowned Mac user Scott Knaster kept this Betamax video tape for 21 years, and German media agency TextLab has unearthed this only surviving video tape of the launch in 1984.

Re: Introduction of the Macintosh

We're sorry, but we can't find the HomePage you've requested. It's possible that:

° The address was entered incorrectly. Check your spelling and try again.

° The .Mac member of this name has either created a page and removed it or has never published a HomePage.

° There is no .Mac member of this name. If you'd like this member name for yourself, sign up for a .Mac account right now and have your own HomePage in minutes.

Re: Introduction of the Macintosh

That was just about the most embarrassing bit of sslf-congratulatory claptrap I've ever seen. It's no wonder Windows eventually triumphed. Apple deserved to get its ass kicked for silly displays like this!

Re: Introduction of the Macintosh

Not to side with Macintosh, but do you have any idea who Steve Ballmer is?

Self congratulatory? A little. PSYCHOTIC? Most likely.
