25 Years of Mac: From Boxy Beige to Silver Sleek

It's the 25th anniversary of the Apple Macintosh, but Steve Jobs' eyes are dry. At the company headquarters in Silicon Valley, where he was presenting a set of new laptops to the press last October, I mentioned the birthday to him. Jobs recoiled at any suggestion of nostalgia. "I don't think about that," he said. "When I got back here in 1997, I was looking for more room, and I found an archive of old Macs and other stuff. I said, 'Get it away!' and I shipped all that shit off to Stanford. If you look backward in this business, you'll be crushed. You have to look forward."

    • steve jobs sounds like a dick from this article. i won't deny, i love my mac, but the "geniuses" are a bunch of dicks too when i try to tell them anything is wrong with it... they just deny it and tell me, if we take it in and can't find anything wrong with it then we still have to charge you for the service fee.... so much for the applecare plan.
