| | Jef Raskin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | While the Apple III was under development, Raskin was lobbying for Apple to create a radically different kind of computer that was designed from the start to be easy to use. | | | Raskin first met Apple Computer's Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak following the debut of their Apple II personal computer at the First West Coast Computer Faire. | | | Jef Raskin (March 9, 1943–February 26, 2005) was an American human-computer interface expert best-known for starting the Macintosh project for Apple Computer in the late 1970s. |

| | Apple Macintosh Computers - Fanlisting |
| | The Macintosh is regarded as being the first personal computer to popularize the use of the graphical user interface at a time when most computers used an operating system with a command line interface. | | | Possibly Apple's number one effect on the industry was the first large-scale use of a graphical user interface in operating system software. | | | Apple has also contributed heavily to the field of mobile computing, and many of the features they have added throughout the years to their mobile lines have become standard in today's industries. |

| | Apple co-founder Steve Jobs dubbed the Macintosh "the people's computer." Jobs and business partner Steve Wozniak -- a math and computer junkie -- had sold their first computer, the Apple I, in 1976. | | | Still, Apple computers have come a long way since their introduction, when IBM's machines, not Microsoft, were the standard. | | | CNN's Daniel Sieberg has a look at a pivotal moment in computing -- the unveiling of the Mac computer on January 24, 1984. |

| | Apple's 1984 |
| | While Apple celebrated its computers' ability to empower knowledge workers, the manual laborers who built the Mac's chips, assembled its hardware, and swept up after its programmers were not so liberated by the promise of individual computation. | | | And while Apple's own fortunes have waned of late, its vision of the power and potential of the personal computer has triumphed, becoming the ideological underpinnings of techno-boosterism in the 1990s. | | | A $10,000 computer designed for the business market, it was a flop. |

| | The Macintosh logo is the Apple with a bite out of it, with its obvious tie to the Tree of Knowledge. | | | Macintosh brings color and life back to the world of computing, to reawaken aesthetic pleasure and appreciation. | | | This is a necessary step to break an associative link between computers in general with robotic and debased humanity that could easily contaminate the perception of Macintosh computer as well as the IBMs. |
