Accesible from the beginning

After a really relaxing, fun, an incredible time at the beach, I come here to post about this wonderful chapter from the Steve Jobs' biography.
This chapter recounts mac's first presentation in 1984, I don't use a mac, but I use an I pod touch, an what impressed me, is, apple products were accesible from the beginning.
Here's mac's first presentation, in 1984.
He opened the mitting, with a poem from the secund vers of Bob Dylan's song, the times they are a changin
"Come writers and critics,
Who prophesize with your pen,
And keep your eyes wide,
The chance won't come again,
And don't speak too soon,
For the wheel's still in spin,
And there's no tellin' who,
That it's namin'."

He ended with
"For the loser now,
Will be later to win,
For the times they are a-changin'."


Then, Steve jobs gave a speatch critizising IBM computers, then he talked about how apple, would dominate the whole wourld, the whole imformation age, the whole computer inndustry.
It went something like this:
“It is now 1984,” he continued, “It appears that IBM wants it all. Apple is perceived to be the only hope to offer IBM a run for its money. Dealers, initially welcoming IBM with open arms, now fear an IBM controlled future….”

“IBM wants it all,” “Will Big Blue dominate the entire computer industry? The entire information age?”

“Was George Orwell right?”

The audience where beside themselves, then, the auditorioum went black, an the 60 secund advertisement began.

Its a really visual comercial, but there it is, I'll post the description written in the book.
I'll post the description another time:)

After that, Steve Jobs showed a demo demonstrating mac's features. First, the word Macintosh appeared across the screen, an below it, Steve's favorite words.
"Insanely great"

Then, the screen displayed charts, documents, different fonds, drawing programmes, an immage of Steve Jobs with a thought bubble containing a Macintosh.
An when the demo ended, he said this memorable words.
"We've done allot of talking about macintosh recently, but today, for the first time ever, I’d like to let the Macintosh speak for itself."

An indeed, the mac spoke.

Its totally amazing.
Thankyou Steve Jobs,.
I wish I knew just a bit about him. When he lived.

I woke up at 8 o’clock,I showered, an went to the airport.
You see, this was a familiar trip so I went with all my family.

                We arrived at the airport at 9 an we just waitted to board the plain.
The Plain landed at one thirty, we took a taxy to go to our hotel.
When we arrived they showed us the room an we just swam an rested all they long (it was super hot).
For dinner we went to a delicious restaurant, I had meat with mash potatoes an a salad.
This post was really short, on Sunday we didn’t do much, we were tired, it was really hot an the pool was delicious!
Don’t worry, this’ll be the only borring day.
