There's a lot of articles floating around at the moment retrospectively reviewing the introduction of the original Macintosh. Which is all well and good, but I am more interested in reviews actually written in 1984 or thereabouts. For those who weren't around then, hopefully these give a different and maybe better insight into the significance of the Mac.
So I searched the internet and came up with a few links.
