The first computer I touched was a Macintosh and the course of my life was immediately changed. It's really strange, I feel like I lost a beloved uncle.
The amount of influence this man had directly on so many lives, businesses and industries is immeasurable.

Worse than that
I go all the way back to the Xerox Star workstation, similar to the ones Steve Jobs saw during his visits to PARC. GUI, drag'n drop, mouse, desktop publishing, I used it all years before the Mac or even Lisa. Jobs did what Xerox HQ wouldn't do though, which was to make it simple, accessible, fun and affordable. Good book to read, Amazon.com: Dealers of Lightning: Xerox PARC and the Dawn of the Computer Age (9780887309892): Michael A. Hiltzik: Books
