Video of Jobs introducing the Macintosh
in 1984


Video of Jobs introducing the Macintosh
in 1984
02/01/2005 09:26 PM

The Apple Macintosh turns 21 years old today and as a birthday present, the long-lost video of its introduction by Steve Jobs has been posted to the web by TextLab on their weblog:

Fear not, faithful Mac believers. We have found it. We have found what seems to be the only copy of a public TV broadcast on that very day. It was recorded and preserved by Scott Knaster, the "legendary Mac hacker", as Amazon puts it. Scott kept the tape (a NTSC Betamax III longplay) for 21 years since he keeps everything. Andy Hertzfeld saw it when he wrote the story "The Times They Are A-Changin'" on folklore.org. From there we followed the hints, and that's how we found it.

We worked with Scott to convert it from NTSC to PAL, we've polished it, cleaned it, huged it and digitzed it. Here it is. It goes back to the people who've made the Macintosh, and to the world. The complete material of about 2 hours is returned to Scott, Andy and the folklore.org people, and this weblog will report the story of the "missing 1984 video" in detail. We'll release other clips in the coming days, so bookmark and check back.

That page is super slow right now, so I've compiled a few links to the video (QuickTime, 20.9 MB). Enjoy:

20 years of the Macintosh


20 years of the Macintosh 12/09/2003 08:41 PM
In 1984, Apple released one of the most expensive and effective commercials of all time during the SuperBowl. This commercial introduced the Macintosh, a revolutionary new concept in personal computing, to the world. In January of next year, the Macintosh will celebrate its 20th anniversary, and it is probable Apple will do something spectacular to celebrate this impressive milestone.

TidBITS Anniversary: Looking Back over
15 Macintosh Years


TidBITS Anniversary: Looking Back over
15 Macintosh Years
04/18/2005 06:45 PM
Adam C. Engst (~4180 words)

This week marks our 15th anniversary of TidBITS, and although we remain somewhat astonished that we've maintained a weekly publication schedule through so many years, the evidence that we've done so is incontrovertible. In many ways, the world has changed around us; back in 1990, could anyone have anticipated what it would be like to use Mac OS X on a dual 2.5 GHz Power Mac G5 or 17-inch PowerBook G4? But although TidBITS has evolved to accommodate such changes, we've also stayed true to our core mission of attempting to bring clarity and understanding to the Macintosh community. Both evolution and the avoidance of unnecessary change remain ongoing tasks, and I'm sure we'll be walking that fine line for years to come. After all, we're only at issue #776, leaving us 224 more weeks (about four and a half years) before we're forced to face up to our 1992 decision to use a three-digit numbering scheme!

Dr. Hardware 2004 Build 5.5.0e


Dr. Hardware 2004 Build 5.5.0e 08/02/2004 01:57 PM
Dr. Hardwares tradition of precise computer analysis is going to be continued under Windows 95, 98, NT4 and 2000 now. Against other system information tools that are operating under Windows Dr. Hardware gets its results not only by inquiring registry settings but also partially through BIOS calls, I/O port accesses and register manipulation what is sometimes a difficult job under Windows. As a result of that you get what can be detected independent of the operating system. The major advantage of this concept is that Dr. Hardware provides very good analyzing results in cases where - for example - a component has not been correctly installed or when Windows is running in safe mode. Another true strength of this program is its high relevance. We implement detection algorithms for new processors or chipsets one day before releasing it - if necessary. Furthermore the detailed description of all components and the in-depth-analysis of more sophisticated stuff make Dr. Hardware to one of the most remarkable programs of its sort. Last but not least we have made great efforts to keep this program as compact and easy-to-use as possible. You will find that its a real power tool and a good friend of your machine.

06/24/2005 07:36 PM
Credit Suisse First Boston reiterated a "market weight" rating on the PC hardware industry after The NPD Group released May retail and distribution data for the United States, reports Forbes. The month represented the first material slowdown for PC shipments in over a year with a 6% year-over-year growth, with notebook sales increasing and desktop sales falling. "From a vendor perspective, Apple Computer was the big winner, growing units 79% year-over-year overall and 94% year-over-year in standalone retail," the research firm said. "The strength in retail year to date has been somewhat unexpected to us given the consumer strength over the past two years, along with slowing macro economic trends. However, it is important not to overanalyze NPD's shipment information, as this is not the first time units have slowed before immediately recovering--October 2003--in the following month."
