1 Revolution from Apple

2 1976: the first Apple computer The first Apple computer was made by Jobs' friend Steve Wozniak and sold in July 1976 for $ (about $ 2500 for current money). To work on this computer, it was necessary to separately purchase the display and electrical wires. Now there are about 50 working Apple I.

3 1977: First Apple to become massive Apple II is the first Apple computer to win mass acclaim: by 1983, when its production ended, several million machines were sold. It was this model that allowed Apple to flourish the first ten years of its existence. Apple II favorably differed from its competitors by supporting color graphics.

4 1984: First Cubic Macintosh Macintosh had a really loud premiere. A $ 1.5 million promotional video shot by Ridley Scott was shown on the Super Bowl Broadcast. For the first 4 months, 70,000 cars were sold for $ 2,495 each (more than $ 5000 at current prices). Then sales declined, but he managed to earn a place in history as the first "ordinary" computer - with a mouse, keyboard, and graphical interface.

5 1989: first laptop Apple's first attempt at making a laptop received critical acclaim, but nevertheless failed to sell on Macintosh portable. The computer weighed just over 7 kg and cost $ 6,500 - more than $ 11,000 in 2009 prices. At the same time, the car was battery powered and was equipped with an LCD screen - it was the most expensive part of Macintosh portable

6 1993: First PDA, Personal Digital Assistant Newton messagepad is the first PDA created by Apple. The abbreviation PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) was invented by the company's general director John Sculley. Newton worked on Newton OS's own operating system and was able to recognize handwriting, among other things, however, it turned out, not good enough to be successful.

7 1998: the first all-in-one display with a USB port The iMac G3 is the first computer in the iMac series (with a combined monitor and system unit) and the first computer with a built-in USB port. For it, the first Apple keyboard and mouse, resembling a hockey puck, were developed. iMac G3 was sold under the slogan "our computer looks better from the back than yours - from the front": quite in the spirit of Jobs.

8 2001: First iPod The existing mp3 players, according to Apple, looked terrible, and the company decided to release its own. The first iPod had a mechanical scroll wheel and 5 GB of memory songs in your pocket. Then the scroll wheel became touch, new models appeared (Shuffle, Nano, and finally Touch), and Steve Jobs agreed with major studios and began selling music through the iTunes Store, which became the largest music retailer in the US in 2009.

9 2007: the emergence of the iPhone The launch of the iPhone was accompanied by no less stir than the release of the new Star Wars series: Steve Jobs fans slept in line. The development took $ 150 million, but they have repeatedly returned to investors. Only the net profit from the sale of 30 million devices is estimated at billions of dollars. As a result, Apple is now the third largest smartphone maker in the world, and the AppStore, which distributes iPhone apps, already has 100,000 programs downloaded more than 1 billion times.
