1. Farallon DiskPaper
   Oct 16, 1990 · original
   A rare screenshot of DiskPaper, published in Byte July 1991 In the Fall of 1990, journalists began writing about a new “print to disk” utility product from Farallon. Seeming to anticipate Adobe’s 1993 Acrobat PDF standard, it was called DiskPaper, but it never shipped from Farallon. The phrasing of MacWEEK’s September 1990 headline “You Won’t Need Glue” was a reference to a dominant player in the electronic document space, Solutions Inc’s Glue. CEO Tom Evslin has a great narrative of how that early print-to-disk application came to be; strategic mistakes aside, Glue found usage in a few Apple Developer CDs, and no doubt many other enterprise documentation contexts elsewhere. Farallon, which was essentially a commercial spin-off of the Berkeley Macintosh Users Group (BMUG), successfully marketed products such as PhoneNET LocalTalk cabling and the MacRecorder/SoundEdit microphone system.

   Adobe, Silicon Beach, Claris, Dayna, Microtech, and other booths Dates: January 20 – 23, 1989 Cost: Exhibitors: Locations: Moscone Center and Brooks Hall Attendees: 60,000 Keynote John Sculley, “attired in faded, wrinkled corduroys and an Apple sweat shirt,” introduced the SE/30 and IIx: two new machines based on Motorola’s 68030 CPU. Sculley also showed off a Mac controlling a Videodisc player through a HyperCard stack, a project dubbed HyperTV. This demo paired an 8Mb IIx with video capture and NTSC-RGB conversion cards from AST, all controlling a Pioneer videodisc player via HyperTV XCMDs (external commands). The NuView board takes live video signals from the videodisc, camcorder or other video source, converts them to RGB signals, converts these to digital images Themes Jerry Borrell, Editor-in-Cheif of Macworld first named Apple’s introduction of 030-based Macs as the most important
6. MacTurkeyFest 1988
   Nov 18, 1988 · original
   Due to a logistical conflict, this exposition was moved from October to November and renamed from MacToberFest to MacTurkeyFest. The special surprise guest was Steve Jobs. David Morgenstern reported: The usually tough BMUG crowd was on their knees in a fit of religious rapture at the visit of a Macintosh saint.
7. MacWorld Expo 1988 Boston
   Aug 21, 1988 · original
   Cricket, Deneba, Claris, and other booths Dates: August 11-13 1988 Locations: Bayside Exposition Center, World Trade Center Exhibitors: 400 Attendees: 40,000 (estimated) Keynotes John Sculley, who showed the famous “Pencil Test” 3D rendering vignette of a cursor who escapes from the screen of a Mac. The video was rendered on a Macintosh II and involved 20 members of Apple’s Advanced Technology Group. Quotes The weather was hot and the show was ‘dull’. There were lots of people in suits not buying anything. There was nothing new or revolutionary. The same could not be said about the food at expo parties, we had seafood every night! As we prepare to wend out way through the multisite monstrosity known as the Macworld Expo, it is interesting to look back and think that it was a mere four and a half years ago that Apple introduced the Macintosh as the computer of the future.

8. System 6
   Apr 19, 1988 · original
   Wikipedia has a quite comprehensive article on System 6 , including a matrix of hardware compatibility and a run-down of what each release brought. But from a more qualitative perspective, here are my notes on the versions: Pre-Release System 6 – 1988 With the advent of larger hard disks, users began to hit the limits of the Desktop File. This invisible document, which stored icon positions and other metadata, had a size limit of 288K and its performance got worse the larger it grew. “It’s all one big glob the Resource Manager has to plow through,” as Raines Cohen put it [Morgenstern July 1988]. In beta versions of System 6, Apple experimented with including the Desktop Manager, a component of their AppleShare server package, as a way of re-structuring this information into separate files . But compatibility problems prevented 6 from shipping with the Desktop Manager. It would eventually

10. Macworld Expo 1988 San Francisco

    Photo by Henry Lim Dates: January 15-17 1988 Cost: $15 Exhibits Exhibitors: 350 Attendees: 45,000 Keynote Day 1: John Sculley (Chairman & CEO, Apple): The Journey Continues In his keynote speech, Sculley stressed Apple’s commitment to networking and connectivity advancements, and introduced the zippy Laserwriter II family, with up to 8 pages per minute of printing power. Day 2 – Gary Tooker (SEVP & COO, Motorola): At the Core of Apple Day 2 – Jean-Louis Gassée (SVP R&D, Apple): How Can We Keep Japan Inc. From Eating Our Sushi? In that speech, delivered at last January’s Macworld Expo, Gassee maintained that the unwieldy nature of the Japanese language prevents that nation’s programmers from developing their own operating system. Moreover, open standards like DOS and UNIX have helped the Japanese in their assault on world markets. Day 3 – Alan C. Kay (Fellow, Apple): Predicting The Future
