"he original Macintosh is a good example of great product. The mouse pointing device took seconds to understand and just few more as it grew buttons and a wheel. Technopriests argued, perhaps “correctly”, that they could do more with the Command Line, but the Mac’s graphical user interface, with its pull-down menus and movable windows, gave the Rest of Us a power we’d never known, it did more — and did it better — than we initially perceived." I dunno if just forgot or have a bad memory from childhood, but I specifically remember things taking insanely long on a Mac compared to a Windows PC. Our high school got new iMac G3s in 2002, whereas at home we had a Windows 95 as our family computer. Applications ran way faster on our home computer, whereas the iMacs would just lock up and not respond for the longest time.
