Today in Computer History (01/24/2024):

On this day forty years ago, Apple Computers released the first All-In-One PC with a GUI to see mass-market success. The Macintosh (later called the Macintosh 128k or the “thin Mac”) was equipped with an m68k microprocessor, 128 kilobytes of ram, a 9” 512x342px CRT display, and a single 3.5” floppy drive, all housed in a beige box.

The commercial for the Macintosh, directed by Ridley Scott, was titled “1984” and aired during Super Bowl XVIII two days before launch (watch it here!). The computer also came with a keyboard and single-button mouse. It sold over 70,000 units within the first one hundred days of being available.
