Throwback Thursday–Apple Style
Throwin’ you back to the 70s on this one.
In honor of Steve Jobs I thought it’d be fun to see one of the first Apples.
Look at that thing–>
Doesn’t that just blow your mind?
And now, you have the tiny thin Macbook Air
Not to mention the very popular iPad. Heck, I have an iPhone that’s pretty much like a computer, too.
Crazy this technology.
Gotta love it!!
Have a super Throwback Thursday, everyone.

Ah, the memories! My first computer was a “Trash-80”, a TRS-80. My mobile phone has more memory than ten of those old clunkers, but they were cutting edge in their day.

Unbelievable. It’s amazing how far we’ve come!

Wow, yeah, we had one of those in our physics labs, LOL! I like the macbook much better. 😉

I remember them in my college computer lab. They were in a separate room from the PCs….LOL!! Like they couldn’t “mingle” or something.

It is amazing the progress made over the years. The disks for those early computers could only hold something like 526K of data. Now the smallest flashdrive holds 4 gig of data
Lynn Rush
It is amazing to see, isn’t it?
Rebecca Zanetti
Wow! Seeing those side by side – that’s crazy! Have a great day. 🙂
Lynn Rush
Hi, Rebecca!!! Side-by-side does make it look more striking, doesn’t it?

I love that you chose this as the throwback. Have you seen the pictures of Steve from those days? Quite the lady killer, he was.
Lynn Rush
I’m still so sad about his passing.

I still have fond memories of my Apple IIE. I played too much Tetris on it in college!
Lynn Rush

That one at the top is one I worked on with students when I began teaching. Yowza. Times have changed.
Lynn Rush
Times sure have changed indeed. I just remember the DOS system and floppy discs…Oh dear.

I’m not sure we had a home computer before the 80’s but I remember my dad using punch cards at his job. LOL
Lynn Rush
LOL!!!
