THE MACINTOSH 128K is locked in the basement
Apple Macintosh 128K personal computer - 1984.
Of all the references in Glitch Techs, the parody of the old mac boot chime really blindsided me lol. Was NOT expecting that.
Today we celebrate the life of Steve Jobs! The well-known tech entrepreneur impacted the lives of most of the world’s population with his visionary approach to technological development. As founder of Apple Computer (with Steve Wozniak), his involvement in the creation of the Macintosh computer in 1984 started a series of breakthroughs in computer-engineering and graphical user interfaces that truly revolutionized personal computing, to the point where a world without an iPhone has become unthinkable.

Created by Chiat / Day and directed by Ridley Scott, this is THE commercial that really started the excitement over Super Bowl commercials. It actually aired twice --- the first being in local outlets like Twin Falls, Idaho on December 31, 1983 at the last possible minute so it could be considered for 1983 advertising awards.
The second televised airing, this time being national, was during the break of the third quarter of Super Bowl XVIII on January 22, 1984. Afterwards the commercial was shown during news stories the next day, but never ran during actual commercial breaks ever again.
Because the commercial is obviously based on Nineteen Eighty-Four, Orwell’s estate sent a cease-and-desist letter to Apple and the ad agency in April of 1984.
As for the commercial itself, it was honestly populated by local skinheads hired by Scott. So that’s a fact you know.
Needless to say, Steve Jobs and John Sculley were so in love with the commercial that they wanted to go ahead with the Super Bowl airing. Unfortunately, the Apple Board of Directors hated it. Steve Wozniak, Jobs and others at Apple offered to pay for the Super Bowl slot but the ad agency was able to get it on the air.
Apple tried to copy the success of 1984 the next year with 1985′s Lemmings commercial to advertise their Macintosh Office. The ad flopped terribly, one of the reasons being it’s actually kind of creepy. It can be found on YouTube.
The total speech of Big Brother is this:
Today, we celebrate the first glorious anniversary of the Information Purification Directives. We have created, for the first time in all history, a garden of pure ideology—where each worker may bloom, secure from the pests purveying contradictory truths. Our Unification of Thoughts is more powerful a weapon than any fleet or army on earth. We are one people, with one will, one resolve, one cause. Our enemies shall talk themselves to death, and we will bury them with their own confusion. We shall prevail!

My Tech Story
Some of the first computers I got to use as a kid were the Commodore 64 computers. These things had no internal memory, made use of 5.25-inch floppy disks with associated drives, and everything was started and run from a command line.
My first brush with Windows and MS-DOS came with my uncle’s Windows 3.1 machine he built. What was different about his computer was that it started up into a…
