Apple's history in several nutshells

Fantastic, exhaustive, well-written, well-researched history of Apple at apple-history.com.

Announced in September 1989, The Mac Portable was Apple's first attempt at a more easily portable Macintosh. It had a bay for a 3.5" half-height drive, and could support up to two Super Drives. Reaction to the Portable was poor. It was clunky, slow, had no expansion capabilities, and its active matrix screen (later backlit) made it incredibly expensive. It sold for $6,500.

I lay my degenerating disc and chronic shoulder-pain at the tiny rubber feet of this computer.
