40 years ago, the very first Apple Mac computer was released. The Apple Macintosh 128K arrived on 24 January 1984, revolutionising personal computing and becoming the firstly commercially successful computer with a graphical user interface. "40 years ago Mac revolutionised personal computing and today the Mac lineup continues to push the limits of computing, empowering all kinds of people to do their life’s best work," Apple shared in a press release, along with a brand new graphic (above).
