Today marks an important day in the history of Apple. At this day in 1984, the world saw the birth of the very first desktop PCs from the Macintosh family. Apple even made an expensive that was aired during Superbowl two days prior to the official launch. The Macintosh included a 9-inch display, 8MHz processor, 128k RAM, internal floppy drive, keyboard and a single buttoned mouse. Check out the Superbowl ad below.

Some interesting reads to suffice your Macintosh dope.
