Vangelis did a great job making this song. Aka the intro music to the "Chariots of fire" movie.
and I think this song was a good choice for promoting this product :)
Yea me too
This is perfect music for the occasion❤
Happy 40th Birthday Macintosh. The computer for the rest of us!
And RIP Steve, I miss your passion and charisma at Apple events. What a special moment in modern history.
Can you imagine a world where people were actually excited to see letters move across a screen or images appear on it? How the world has changed since 1984!
Today, it's like someone tells you that we've built a fully functional Jarvis with a fully functioning Iron man suit
The excitement was a computer that out of the box actually had a use. Every PC fired up to a blinking cursor. Without buying software it was useless. It was the first Graphical User Interface. Way beyond MicroSoft. And being within one box with one mouse and keyboard it was, in its time, as revolutionary as the iPod, iPhone, and iPad. Though not battery powered you could easily move it. PC's were one pile of wires and boxes. Apple, unlike now, moved the world onwards with each new product. It's only mistakes were in the period of Job's absence. An amazing record of what 33 years of focus can do.
Brynley Talbot - Well said!
Were you in the 80s or the 90s when you saw computers first came out
This little upright box of tricks was an amazing effort. I preferred the Commodore Amiga 1000 when it arrived 18 months later - the Amiga looked like a more modern incarnation of the classic Commodore PET from 1977. I still have a Macintosh Performa 200 in the man cave from around 1992 - so this Macintosh enjoyed a long run in computing terms!
When he made the macintosh talk, the crowd was so crazy even I smiled.
Exact same feeling
It's so wholesome
You: A kid with good grammar.
Me:A kid with good grammar.
Finally, a worthy opponent. Our battle will be legendary!
Machine SPEAKS. Crowd enters state of mass hysteria and experiences multiple collective orgasms. There is something very American about this, dare I say? 🙏🏻
Yeah but he faked it. The voice wasn't working at the time of the presentation.
It’s awesome to see Steve’s face as he presents this. He and the Mac team knew they had something amazing. He and his gang of pirates really made history, and after hearing that crowd’s reaction, you can’t help but smile too.
This project was called the "Lisa"....Steve named all project with names...
@@n6cid Actually Jef Raskin named the Macintosh. The Macintosh was started shortly after the Lisa project (named after Steve's daughter who he sorta refused to be the father of). The Macintosh was a less powerful device than the Lisa but was revolutionary due to the software Steve had the software team develop for it. At one point when becoming the head of the Macintosh team, Jobs tried to rename it the "Bicycle", but everyone on the team hated it and refused to use the name, so it was kept as the Mac we know today.
@@Mr.Fishward Did you work at Apple back in the day? I did.
@@n6cid No, I am just passionate about the history of the company. I actually recently got done reading Steve Jobs' biography.
@@Mr.Fishward That's cool, Steve was different back in those days. To be honest he was a real drunk and treated people very badly. It's no wonder his liver gave out on him at such a young age.
I remember in the early 1980's an Apple salesmen came to our company to demonstrate the Lisa computer. After several minutes of demoing the Lisa he said, "have you noticed I have shown you this software without touching the keyboard once?". It was very impressive, but also very expensive. Then a few years later they released the Mac, and the Lisa was history.
Let's be honest...This footage has a better quality than some recent paranormal activity videos on TH-cam😂
🤣 True, some how they are always on 480p.

😂😂😂😂😂😂
Have you played driver parallel lines? That game is exactly like you are saying...
People today can't appreciate what Steve Jobs presented on that day. We now take such things for granted. When I first heard about this Macintosh thingy I'd grown up working with command line computer interfaces such as DOS. I couldn't believe what people were telling me until I saw this computer for myself.
Over the years Steve Jobs went on to present even more amazing stuff like that, for instance smartphones, a technical miracle at the time and for me still is.
Rest in peace, Steve, we all miss you.
BTW, I'm not an Apple fanboy, I own a Windows laptop and a Google Pixel mobile. But I know that these gadgets wouldn't exist without Steve Jobs.
At 32 years old and born in 1991, I come here today on the 40th anniversary of this historic event and I promise you, I for one can. There were many personal computers coming out around this time, some of them better by hardware (the Amiga, for example), some of them more affordable and better-selling (the Commodore 64), but absolutely none of them presented such a perfectly balanced blend of capability, usability and affordability.
A monochrome display wasn't particularly wonderful by 1984 standards any more; hell, even the C64 did 16 colors instead of just two. But the _content_ displayed on this screen, the absolute density and variety of things shown in this demo, the implications of _what such a tiny box could deliver_ were absolutely earth-shattering. The audience for this demo had every reason to go wild, because in these few brief minutes, they could see that what was once considered "the future" had finally become "now."
I'm not an Apple fan either, honestly can't stand anything they've done since the late 2000s; but this, right here, was a special moment in history.
@@AdamNovagen I appreciate your enthusiasm. I was already a seasoned computer user in 1984 so I daresay I can tell you a few things here.
The presentation of the Macintosh in 1984 was nothing to go wild about. Already the Lisa could do more than the Macintosh. The Amiga and Atari were also just as able, had been on the market already a year earlier and had a larger collection of software to choose from. And all these systems had larger displays. Many even complained about the Mac's postage stamp sized display.
Wild enthusiasm for the new Macintosh was therefor unwarranted and had more to do with Apple's clever marketing campaign than with the introduction of a rather mediocre and far too expensive personal computer.
Same here and I own a Windows computer and a Google pixel 7 pro. But I still think that Apple has really paved the way for a lot of the way we see electronics today. I've owned Apple products in the past and even though I much prefer the ability to have more granular control over customization, I can't lie when I say that the overall user interface and way that Apple products works is simple and seamless. It's just a great experience. But I like to tinker and I like to be able to controlled tiny little aspects of my devices so I have stuck with Windows and Android. But More recently I have considered getting a Mac just to have the best of both worlds.
I was so happy that I had the chance to be among the audience, Steve gave us goosebumps.
"we're finally here. the future."

He was so proud to hear his friend Stephen Hawking helping him present the Mac.

I remember my first encounter with a Mac in 1988 or so. I’d never seen anything like it, but 20 minutes later I was printing a beautiful letter and drawing stuff. It was revolutionary.
I bought a Mac Plus, Rodime 30 mb external hard drive and Image Writer printer…put it all on Apple Credit…about $4.5 k…. I wouldn’t be surprised if i wasn’t still making payments on it !!! 🥴
That's about when I first used a Mac too. It was in a college computer lab, and I only used it because my friend needed my paper given to him on a disc. I didn't know shit about it, because the last computer I used were Trash 80s and Commodores in high school. Hell most of the time I wrote my papers on a MANUAL typewriter at home.
That's the face of someone who is really proud of his product and really loves what he does. Amazing footage

@@Turkuaz002 same videos dude, what are you doing?

Of course
not faster than my Mac though :P
Ever heard of an ssd?
All home computers these days were "booting" faster as actually they didn't have dynamic operation systems on hard drive. Or in most cases - no hard drives at all - you were loading software from floppies. And OS was placed in ROM memory, so it was starting immediately.
operation?
My 25-year career as an IT professional was inspired by his Apple II computer I had when I was in high school. I never forget the Apple BASIC, CPM Card, etc. I remember when I had to gratefully deal with IRQ jumpers to get my SAM Speech Card to work. What a fond memory. Thank you Steve. May God reward you up there for the great things you had done for the world.
I don't if its just me but every time I see this it brings tears to my eyes. Steve Jobs just made history.

From humble beginnings(1984) to what Macintosh (Mac) is today (2023). Innovation at its finest. You could tell that the late Steve Jobs had a passion and vision for his products. He saw wanted we all needed ahead of its time.
Innovation at it's finest? No, vendor lock-down existed before the Macintosh.
Sometimes I just get myself imagining what we could have nowadays if Steve was still alive. Doubtless he was a visionary.
I doubt it would be different at all. Jobs very rarely invented anything new, he just took existing stuff, and gave it a slick paintjob. His 'genius' was in marketing, not actual tech.
He did nothing but paint shit to look like gold..that's why the iphone hasn't changed in literally a decade

I was an ad agency production manager from 1960s to 2010s. The release of the Macintosh in 1984 was a total game changer. No more physical cut and paste of text matter with photo prints to create an advert. Adverts became completely made/produced via the Mac. Macs were the platform of choice because operating them was so much more intuitive, easier and quicker than trying to do the same work on a Windows platform. Back then design and production software was mainly made for use only on Macs. Only in recent years have many softwares been built for Windows PC as well. Today most ad agencies, design and creative businesses in Australia use Macs in preference to a Windows PC. Thank heavens Apple and Steve Jobs came along when they did. Creatives never had it so good.
I worked in a small design studio in the 90's and the old hand that owned the place would do an edit to a brochure, save and close it and then would shake his head and say "that would have taken me 2 hours just a few years ago."
I still have one of the original Mac Plus' with all the peripherals as well. It launched a whole new career for me. I then bought one for my son, and it launched a career in Macintosh Computer Forensics for him. It truly was a ground breaker!
It surprise me how this booted up faster than my windows 10...
128K RAM and 64KB ROM is the answer.
That's because there's almost NOTHING to boot up in this thing. My God, are you people actually implying this old-ass mac is better than your PC? Get real, kids. Can you play GTA-5 on this thing? Oh I thought not . . .
u r a piece. Lol
@Mike Yeah, but considering to how much faster the hardware is today, it has LESS to do than this Mac. Code was much more efficient back in the day because it HAD to be. Today, the whole codebase is a mess because the hardware is so fast, nobody will bother to fix it.
Considering that quite a decent chunk of the system is in the ROM it's not very surprising.
Hi I am 61 right now but I am proud to say that I was present there and excited as hell, those were my college days and till now everything has changed dramatically.

It doesn't matter if you prefer Windows, Mac or Linux. If you like home computers, this is probably one of the most important moments of all time
megahurtz30 no, no it's not mate.
Arthas Menethil It's one of the most important moments in computing history. Without this computer it is possible we could still all be using text based systems. Apple took the concept of a GUI and made it available to the masses and it changed home computing forever as it made computers easier to use in an era where command lines were the norm.
this is the comment i said "no its not" to. "It doesn't matter if you prefer Windows, Mac or Linux. If you like home computers, this is probably one of the most important moments of all time". now take your take to read that shit and take it in.

+Kader Mapel Wouldn't that make Steve Jobs not-invent the revolutionary stuff that we see today?
+Cenric He actually didn't invent that much, he found a way to implement different kinds of technology in a way that would benefit the end user so much that it kinda became the standard we know today.
That, by its self, is very creative but not inventing. It is kinda like painting a nice scenery, it is there and you didn't invent the canvas, the paint, the brushes or the scenery but you still manage to make something stunning from it.
Look it up, most things that apple is known for introducing has been around before.
+Kader Mapel you would change the world could possibly end in nuclear destrcution
+Bas van der Meij (Ykai63) Then what's your definition of inventing? Literally everything that has ever been "invented" has simply been putting things together.
mhillsman An invention is creating something new, that hasn't been seen before like when the computer mouse was invented, it was way before apple brought it to market but apple made it popular.
The same goes for the iphone, they didn't invent much of the technologies but brought them to the consumer market in a desirable way so they made those technologies popular as well.

I just found this video, and I already noticed a couple of comments comparing this to what we have now. Yet I am able to keep perspective in mind, so I can imagine how amazing it must've been at the time. Sure I wasn't born until ten years later, but I've long had a fascination with retro tech so I was genuinely intrigued by this video. It's probably one of the most beautiful things I have seen to date.
And extra points for playing the "Chariots of Fire" theme in the background. That was fucking epic! 😁
@@astrodome1994 Funnily enough technology with computers now has not fundamentally changed since then. The desktop environments are similar, programs can do similar rendering and are built upon the same elements. The only thing that has changed is the power and efficiency, an average person will be able to use that old mac because it is so similar in basics to the new macs we have now.
You are completely right, I can’t comprehend what all the fuss is about. Sure, I understand that this technology was never seen before. But it’s so ordinary now, everything that it could do. Crazy

Only 37 year☠️
With the exception of color TV; FM stereo radio; a pocket calculator; the 45 rpm/33 LP records/cassette tapes; along with the transistor radio, technology from the 1940s to the '70s for the average consumer really didn't progress all that far. But, from the late 1970s to present day, the technological leaps have been astounding.
A person taking a time leap from the 1940s to 30 years in the future could still function well with handling the 1970s technology. But a person from the 1970s to jump to the present? It would be a struggle. Something as simple as a cordless phone they wouldn't know how to answer it.
it's the same technology, just faster and smaller
@@Dreezel reason I say that is because I'm only 32 years old, my life hasn't been that long. Now 37 years might sound and feel like a long time to an older gentleman but for me it isn't that long.

The moment Steve Jobs and team changed not only computing, but the world itself.
I was born in early '72, remembered playing home pong in '76, Atari in '78, Apple 2 in '80, Commodore 64 in '82, Mac in '84, and Amiga in 86. So much happened in those 10 years in every facet of the American home, you had to be a kid to appreciate it all. It was the first days of what what once all analog, quickly heading to digital. Computers, movies, music, appliances, cars, arcades, you could see the changes happening so quickly, you were sure we would living on the moon by the year 2000. It was an intense technical revolution that will likely never be repeated.
I don't use Apple's products. I prefer Windows and Android, but the significance of this unveiling as well as the iPhone's cannot be overstated. So cool to see it for the first time here in 2018. The 80's were a magical time.

@@jb6425 Well I wouldn't go that far, but Jobs was very very good at instinctively knowing what works and what doesn't, and he was a stickler for making items that would push technology but also be easy enough to use for the mass market. It's not so much what Jobs personally did, he was just great at being an a-hole and rejecting stuff if he didn't deem it perfect, and since he's been gone too many products are brought to market that are pretty good, but not insanely great. A perfect fit for Apple is Elon Musk, he's a guy that seems to have that same type of drive and instinctive ability to make items that people want - while also pushing the envelope. Apple should buy Telsa and make Musk their CEO, that I think would push Apple again to innovate rather than just refine items like they do under Cook, who is clearly just a penny pincher and has zero vision.
I feel so good for him in the part where he was smiling. He was so proud. RIP Steve Jobs :(
THIS is history. As an Apple fanboy, I have to agree, this is the most important moment in Apple's history.
yes
We used these a work. They were super cool, at the time. I should have bought a used one and kept it as a souvenir.

A masterpiece.
I remember this computer, a friend lent me his to 'play with'... I had to lay a fan on top of it, blowing directly into the top, to keep it from overheating & shutting down.
Greetings from Mexico, Good morning I love what I am seeing on your profile. I apologize for jumping into your comment in such a way. I'm really looking forward to get to know you better. If you're comfortable with it, I'd love to talk somewhere outside the TH-cam comment section. and get to know each other a bit more intimately. What do you think about that?
Just look at the audience? Screaming, shouting, standing up, happy, joyfully loud!
That's really inspiring! Wow!
His smile said everything. I may not have been a fan of him as a person, but you can't deny his drive changed the world of technology forever.
exactly this
It was his drive that change the cinematic world with his joining Pixar. It was his drive that pushed for a user friendly OS (though taken from Xerox) and an all in one personal computer. It was his drive that pushed for the simplication of the MP3 player and later the smartphone. It's easy to sit back and wallow in your own ignorance, but those of us in the tech community bore witness to the progress of technology, and Steve Jobs was at the forefront of bringing a lot of innovation to the consumer.

NewUrbanVoice don't worry, they are just little kids that are salty. Never EVER talk to salty people
Good thing too because the desing of everything was getting boring. I mean, I look at how things are desinged today and think "Steve Jobs needs to redesing that."
My brother and I shared a Macintosh and loved it.
A world where the resolution of the monitor was less than any printer. Where CPU's were so slow every.single.action had visible latency. What an era, loved it yet we could never imagine how insanely fast or hi-res our world would be now in 2023.
This was amazing when it happened. I was only 9 years old! I am almost 48 today. Steve Jobs was truly a pioneer and he left behind life changing devices that we take for granted today. He has left as much of an impact on human life as Newton, Gutenberg, Edison, the Wright Bros, and Ford.

I can't imagine the kind of emotions those people must have felt when they saw this back in 1984. These days kids all go to E3 and get excited about the latest Call of Duty games. That isn't innovation, this is innovation. This was a massive leap in technology back in 1984, we need to make another massive leap.
There's some very incredible mathematics and programming tricks in modern games that involve optimizing the use of scarce processor and memory resources during the runtime of the game. The game industry is VERY innovative, I assure you. Have you seen the 3D modeling software
Holograms....
WeAreAllThereIs
Well Im sure he didnt mean to critize game industry as whole, just used Call of Duty series as example what is NOT innovation....or atleast hasnt been for long time
If it is that advanced, how come all the games (especially the shooters) today be looking exactly the same, and more or less being exactly the same deal? Innovation is, no matter how small it is; simply creating something new and unique for the market. Take CoD away and you have hundreds of new games identical to it.
WeAreAllThereIs The game industry is good, but not VERY innovative. Something VERY innovative is something that changes everyone worldwide forever. The newest Call of Duty didn't change the world, but this machine did, because it brought us here, with the fancy, full-of-GUI computers.
It's been several decades and the computers now are more powerful and more realistic than the old ones. With so much advancement in technology and rapid progress we have made, it been phenomenal. Steve Jobs started a journey, now we have taken several thousand steps. It's been an amazing journey. 👍👍👍👍👍.

Its easy to build on existing things

@@anggupta461 People write their thesis during the last year of graduate school. Assuming he graduated High School at 18, add 3 more years for undergrad, and 2 years for graduate. That means he was around 23 at 1988. Therefore, he should be around 56 now. This is assuming he wrote his masters thesis and not his PhD thesis. If he wrote his PhD thesis then add 4 more years making him around 60.

Macintosh (legendary PC)
I was lucky enough to grow up in a house where at age 5 someone explained to me what all those boxes of punch cards were for in the garage, and at age 7 or 8 was connecting to Motorola in Phoenix via TRS-80 and suction cup modem. Then in the early '80's had access to Apple II with a floppy drive and was able to play games like dig dug or Olympic Decathlon with my cousins on it. Then in the late '80 mustered an Atari 1040 ST for hosting my BBS on, but was also great for the Phantasie series. I never did have a Mac though. My best friend's dad got one when they first came out and it was mindblowing. Not only the graphics, but the fact that it came with its own carrying case and was the predecessor to what we know know as a laptop. Back then, we were still dealing with mainframes, so the Macintosh was way ahead of its time.
To steve:
your child is 35 years old, we never forget you Steve
the child is a freak that mutated from motorola to powerpc to intel to arm; even worst, many bad practices (then critiziced by jobs like ibm and microsoft monopolies) are now embraced by apple; key players/designers resinged (jonathan ive) and the proliferation of independent 3rd party services (like Louise Rossman & Jessa Jones) are exposing the bad products and design apple is throwing at its fanboy base
It's unfair to call the Macintosh one of Jobs children. He didn't ignore it

Steve had at least 10 Million by this time. You replied "because money makes you nicer ?" Your comment makes no sense. I was commenting that Steve was a real jerk and pos. When Steve had 200 million he was still a world class jerk pos. So money certainly did not make him nicer.
