Apple's Revisionist History
Just a thought from 6 January 2004 about
Apple, Geek, iPod.
Apple showed its classic 1984 Macintosh ad today at MacWorld San Francisco, but with a twist: they digitally grafted an iPod on to the runner. The result is strangely disturbing, both because they're revising their own history, and also because, well, isn't infiltrating a militaristic compound with a huge mallet while listening to music kinda dangerous?
Wha?
This section is called Just a Thought. It's a blog where I post little pieces of what I'm thinking about at the moment. This page is an individual entry called “Apple's Revisionist History” that I wrote on 6 January 2004.
Before this, I wrote a little something called “She Said Yes” on 2 January 2004. After this, I wrote “Unquote” on 7 January 2004.
