Apple Computer: Apple Mac
built 123 days ago
Steve Jobs then became part of a smaller project team at Apple, to work on the design of a proposed $500 computer system for the home market. The system was later named the Macintosh. The emphasis in the design of the Macintosh was on simplicity, geared to appeal to the average user. The Macintosh was eventually fitted with a number of the Lisa's features. Like the Lisa, the Macintosh's operating system used a graphical user interface (GUI) and lacked function keys, encouraging users to rely on the mouse to navigate. The early Macintosh contained 128K of memory, which was twice that of the equivalent PC at the time, and a 32-bit microprocessor which outclassed the standard PC's 16-bit microprocessor.
