The most moment in software history

40 years later, it was still a extremely touching moment watching that video demo on Macintosh. And I'm watching this video on the newest MacBook. How technology has evolved, I mean, I'm now able to train my own GPT on my MacBook.

Genius move to have the soft-spoken software engineer who designed the paint program actually demonstrate it. The audience is completely smitten, and now all the digital artists are fantasizing about how they will use these new features.

I had the privilege of meeting Steve twice in my lifetime: once in 1980 at the Monterey Tech Fest where he and Steve Wozniak pushed their Apple 1. Then in 1994, I was working for Quadrus in Menlo Park, California, on Sand Hill Dr, where our clients included Kleiner, Perkins, Caulfield, and Beyers, SDG, Pilkington Vision, Sierra Ventures, Kolberg Kravis Roberts, Informix, and NeXT. We set up for a Steve Jobs luncheon and he comes out to see what we're doing, invites us to stay and watch their meeting. He was truly a personality to reckon with. But super friendly.

Yes and no... people almost always forget Lisa 1983. It was a Mac, kind of, but in another shape. Mac had a better design and a lower price. It all started with Lisa. It was too expensive. That was a big problem. The history: Jobs had a mission to develop two new computers: Lisa and Mac. Jobs believed most in Lisa. It all started before the Xerox PARC visit. Lisa and Mac was planned to have a command line interface like Apple II and MS-DOS. But after the Xerox PARC visit Jobs changed everything! Both Lisa and Mac must have that GUI and mouse and everything! The main difference between Mac and Lisa was that Mac could not run Lisa apps and vice versa. Apple rebranded a later Lisa into Mac XL with some Mac compatibility. Then they ended Lisa. But it all started with Lisa. Easy to forget Lisa. And why that black & white display? Why not color? Because black & white gave a higher resolution at that time. Even the first NeXT computers had black & white displays. Later on those color displays with good resolution popped up. This is why Mac became the leader in DTP, because of WYSIWYG. You couldn't have that on PC in 1984. So Aldus PageMaker came to Mac. Adobe bought Aldus some years later, ended PageMaker after a while and released InDesign. PageMaker was amazing! So much better than Word, WriteNow and all those apps if you wanted to create a magazine/newspaper. Crazy that the flrst Mac OS could fit into that 64 kB ROM! I've never ever used that first Mac 128k... wonder how many or few units of Mac 128k that still exist today and still working...

The speech Jobs put together here is so brilliant it’s ridiculous

This is terrific. It is modeled after what Doug Engelbart at SRI did in 1967 when he demonstrated in San Francisco most of the key features Jobs and his team put together for the Mac. Engelbart's presentation is called the "Mother of All Demos." It is on KZread and it is still astounding after all these years.

Always the showman. Steve was amazing. Demons and all.

I'm watching this video on an 8 core, 4GHz, 32GB DDR4 RAM workstation with a 43 inch 4K UHD monitor and all can think about is how damn bad I want one of these old Macs.

These guys at the end can really see the future it's amazing.

What a fantastic piece of history! The demonstration and panel Q&A session was fascinating to watch. This group of people managed by Steve Jobs did an amazing job with such limited hardware.

@@valley_robot Cheaper than IBM's own PCs, yes, but in the mid to late 80s a large number of much cheaper IBM-compatible clones came to market, which made Apple's products look expensive by comparison. Around this time Microsoft was also producing the early versions of Windows. By the time Windows 3 came out in 1990 a similarly easy-to-use GUI experience was available for much lower cost on IBM compatibles, with a much wider range of available software. The Mac user interface was still second to none, and Macs found their niche in certain tasks, in particular Desktop Publishing using Quark Xpress, which was basically the industry standard though the 1990s. That alone is likely what kept Apple afloat in it's dismal period of lacklustre products in the early 1990s. (Until Steve came back in 1997 - everyone knows the story from there.)

it is mind blowing to think of the genius that small mac team was to pull off the magic they did with such increadibly constrained requirements they had to work with (ram, storage, cpu). Interesting to think of the alternate time line in a world where Steve never leaves and the Mac team continues to innovate.

Most consumers couldn't afford the Mac at $2500, a mainstream price point he claims, so they continued to push Apple II simultaneously for $1400. No wonder Commodore sold more computers for home use than Apple & IBM combined, snatching over one third of the market in the process, if by 1984 they charged just $215 for it. So Mr Jobs acted like an elitist he was by saying there were just two milestones in the industry. Commodore did much more for the home computer market than those two.

Fascinating to look back to 1984 and see just how far we’ve come. I was too hyped up for upcoming Super Bowl Probably first time I heard of Apple was because of that famous commercial which appeared during the game. It would be another decade before I saw an actual Mac in person. It had to be exciting time in the compter industry.

8:17 When That Went RIGHT Out The Bag, Apple Changed Forever 8:28 When That First Ever Macintosh Startup Was Heard, Apple REALLY Changed Forever 8:39 When That Macintosh Presented Itself, Apple Will Never Forget This Day (& the iphone one)

Love how he had to read off a piece of paper with generally average presentation skills before he became the master of presentations.

Imagine go back in time with a USB 3.0 1.TB in your hands in this meeting and show it to him

An Amazing Marketer! Well articulated proposition!

The whole archetype is there. It’s beautifully realized.

Amazing how far we’ve come

They loved MacPaint.

$2495 in 1984! Dang that is some serious cash for a computer in 1984!

That was $6,587.14 in todays money. That's insanely expensive!!! Crazy how cheap yet overwhelmingly powerful computers have become today

I'm amazed at how much has essentially remained the same since 1984. Photoshop today functions largely the same as MacPaint did. Even cats were already jumping on keyboards. This is truly a historical year in desktop computing.

Yep hein sight is crazy man people back then said this was stupid but now it’s literally part of our everyday lives

The best part of this is the casual interview with Woz at the end. What a contrast of men between Woz and Jobs.

He knows everything about the products he created

Marketing is soo damn wild. I want one. GENIUS

Holy hell, that MacPaint demo (its truly timeless, we still use the same basic functions today) - man try doing that without bitmap graphics and a mouse, the audience having been used to the command pompt and character based graphics seeing that was rightly impressed.

Yes, I was thinking the same thing. He nailed the interface. It's pretty much the same one used by every graphics program since.

I could set heat and listen to him all day.

Those were some expensive buggers. I am amazed Apple even made it out of the 80's alive.

The gasps over MacPaint is amazing.

Simply great! Greatness in simplicity. I remember how excited was I, 15yo at the time, walking to the exhibition "Информатика вжизни США" just 10 min from my home in Leningrad...

i´m watchin this on my MacBook, Steve Jobs was a such brilliant mind

*5:32* Astonished to hear, Macintosh was really that expensive even in that era. *$2495*

So cool. Respect to all these people.

Steve Jobs didn't invent the mouse, Xerox Park did and Steve visited them, made a deal, and copied elements of their OS (under a stock deal) and the mouse.

Watching this for the first time ever in 2024. I can't believe that this was 40 years ago. Steve Jobs influenced my life to pursue a career in the IT industry. Looking backwards it was the best desicion I made in my life

For some reason, Mac paint still seems really impressive today!

@Jdrocco You have other stuff on your hands, bro.

I’m back again, damn Bill’s demonstration was awesome. If only they had live streams back in 1984. Unless you used a Mac in store, you’d have no idea of what it could do. Most seeing adverts, both in print and on TV would probably see the tiny box and dismiss it as a “toy”. It’s kinda sad looking back.
