high voltage Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 During Super Bowl XVIII, Apple Computer introduced the Macintosh, the first successful personal computer to use a graphical user interface, with the television commercial "1984". I loved my Mac, good memories. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, the ones we use are technically "clones" of the IBM PC, so I don't think it counts as a single computer line. IBM doesn't manufacture home computers called PCs anymore.

Keatah Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Perhaps it should be x86. Especially since the MAC had changed cpu/architecture several times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the Mac line has been the longest running name computer in history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
