The Mac Turns 20 Tomorrow, Saturday, January 24th

1999–2004January 26, 2004Macs Only!Events
. Tomorrow marks the 20th anniversary of the release of Apple's Macintosh personal computer to the world as introduced in the 1984 Super Bowl ad. The ad, with a slight modification of adding an iPod to the hammer-throwing model's waist, was shown at Macworld Expo during Steve Jobs' keynote address--here it is side-by-side with the original. Will Apple release anything new on the Mac's 20 birthday? Things have been pretty quiet but we'll have to wait and see.
