Turned on my 128k, played with MacPaint and turned it off. There celebrated Mac's B-Day by using the first one! Only because I'm a day ahead of you's in the US!
Hey and did you know that there are signatures inside the case! I opened it up and found all these names on the back of the case! Woz's was there!

Re: Mac's Birthday
Sleeping in. Its a Saturday. I don't celebrate company birthdays not even my own. Microsoft, Apple, Toshiba, Best Buy. *shrugs*
OK, OK, so I _MIGHT_ stop by the Apple store tomorrow and see if anything new pops....er.....up.
*shakes head* I just imagined Jobs jumping out of a cake.

i want to celebrate mac turning 20 by turning on my computer, logging on, and finding that apple inc just announced a G5 powerbook or g5 imac...that would be a great way to celebrate the 20th for the most influential personal computer ever to hit the market

I guess a better image than Gates popping out of a cake wearing a g-string and pasties. (shudder)

Well and I let my iBook ON all day ! To give him freedom and that it can do what ever it wants
Isn't that nice ?

A better question would be 'How does Apple plan on celebrating?'
Its quite surprising that there is nothing seeming to be going on there.....

Nothing on the Birthday-Boy's site?
Strange. Would have expected something...

donthurtme, i am now also wondering if there will be any major celebration
i think they may have a little news item or even a "happy birthday" on the front page, but apple inc will release a new item or speed bump when they are ready and it may not correspond with this anniversary or the superbowl...of course, that would be nice and that was my hope
but i think of what they have done rather recently...G5 for desktop, large 20 inch imac, panther, alu 15 inch powerbook, G4 in the ibook, G5 xserve, and a mini ipod covered the bases
the only major thing that has not changed is the emac and i only think speed bumps and increased ram is all they will do for that model as well as better prices and that will be welcome
this day, or the coming superbowl, or any time within a month, would be perfect for a completely new apple inc item or major software release...i am excited and treating this as if it were another macworld sf
update: now at 630 pm, pst, there is still nothing on the apple website...i guess there are no surprises today
