Demo of the first Apple Macintosh by Steve Jobs, January 1984, in front of 3000 people. Andy Hertzfeld captured the moment quite well in his retelling: "Pandemonium reigns as the demo completes. Steve has the biggest smile I've ever seen on his face, obviously holding back tears as he is overwhelmed by the moment. The ovation continues for at least five minutes before he quiets the crowd down."

  • I don't remember that day, but I remember that week because that week I also wiped out on my bicycle and needed a bunch of stitches in my arm(My Philadelphia Eagles watch embedded in my wrist) so I always associated Macintosh with that accident. :D I was 14 years old. Good times. Happy birthday!

    You: You serious?

  • Wait, is this the "Macintosh" or the "Macintosh Plus"?

  • Happy 28-th year birthday Macintosh

  • HAPPY BIRTHDAY MACINTOSH! January 24th,1984

  • The irony - I can't watch this on my iPad, because "The content owner has not made this video available on mobile". I guess the desktop isn't dead, after all!

  • Macintosh!!! Happy B-day
