1:52 "And if you travel, Macintosh can EASY go along." Puts microwave in the backpack
-
Look at Gates when he was juts a poor millionaire.
-
Being born in the '70s and growing up in the '80s and in college as an adult in the 90's, watching all this unfold and seeing how far we've come over time is fantastic.
-
Gates was 29 years old (depending on when this was filmed) and sitting at a desk as Microsoft’s chairman and spokesperson. Looks like a kid.
-
One day people will laugh at todays computers. Show some respect
-
"It only costs half as much as other computers" When did apple start to forget about this ?
-
She was the only person in the world to ever ride a bike with a full size Macintosh while wearing a business suit.
-
"You don't have to be a genius". What a line!
-

-
i almost choked when the lady put the computer in the bag

I was born in '87. It's incredible how far technology went in 30 years. Witnessing the born of Internet, cellphones and to be able to experience that change was awesome, and brings a lot of nostalgia.
-
It's all an ever evolving process. It's good to look back at this. For me it's so nostalgic; it allows me to respect how far the computer industry has gone, and more than that, it gives me a wonderful feeling of how far it will go. The process goes on.

Look guys - She sold her car for that damn Macintosh!! :)

See you in 10 years when this is gonna get recommended again

Brilliant. I love the scene, when she‘s stuffing the MacIntosh into something that looks like some sort of lunchbox and that’s assumed to be a suitable way to carry your computer with you. It‘s like the first ‚mobile phones’ that were actually phones built in cars. You put them out of the car and strapped them to your shoulders … 😀 Amazing journey since then, and a more amazing to come!
-
The bit I love about this is that you would want a travel case that allows you to cart around “the manual” as well😂 how things have changed.
-
1:45 Apple sells the numpad separately. Some things never change, do they?
-
Putting that whole computer in a suitcase was hilarious
-
"Cost half as much as computers half as powerful' Now, 'Cost twice as much as computers twice as powerful'
-
When u realize this video will be 40 yrs old next yr in 2024. I was a toddler when this computer came in 84 and thats the 1st pc laptop.
