Do you remember the first time you saw a Mac? I do.
It was the fall of 1985, almost two years after the iconic “1984” Super Bowl commercial and the Mac’s subsequent launch on January 24, 1984, when I had secured a part-time job as a layout artist for a local newspaper. It was a father-and-son operation and the son, only a decade older than me, was into bleeding-edge technology. One day, he arrived with two large boxes. One contained a Macintosh 512K and the other an Apple LaserWriter printer. He also handed me a box of software: Aldus PageMaker V 1.2. Then he left.
