Trivia Tuesday

Did You Know that Master Chief's armor from Halo: CE's MacWorld 1999 trailer was canonized as ORION armor? Never leaving the prototype stage, this armor was tested by ORION operatives and would later inform the design of MJOLNIR and SPI.

Macworld March 2001

The G4 moved into a portable form factor (even as a news item in this issue complained about Motorola's lackadaisical speed bumps to its chip). Andrew Gore's editorial was quite impressed with the titanium-cased PowerBook G4 (including how the big Apple logo on the "lid" now faced up when the portable was open and in use), and also with Apple's MP3-playing, CD-burning program iTunes. David Pogue's back-page column complained about amazon.com meddling with its book-selling section as if to "make us subsidize the struggling departments—the ones that sell cars, patio furniture, and shaving cream."

Macworld October 1998

"Macworld is a web site dedicated to products and software of Apple Inc. It is published by Mac Publishing, which is headquartered in San Francisco, California. Published since 1984, the magazine has the largest audited circulation (both total and newsstand) of Macintosh-focused magazines in North America, more than double its nearest competitor, MacLife (formerly MacAddict). Macworld was founded by David Bunnell (publisher) and Andrew Fluegelman (editor). It was the oldest Macintosh magazine still in publication, until September 10, 2014, when IDG, its parent company, announced it was discontinuing the print edition and laid off most of the staff, while continuing an online version."

Steve Jobs' 2007 keynote

This is a generation reaching a climax. They also got stuck there. See how.

People could hardly contain their Christmas excitement. They already wanted to leave and go out and get it. Instead, the experience went interestingly. They stayed in their seat.

The experience was as interesting as any movie, as exciting as any stage performance.

They sat with each others' burps, farts, coughs, etc., because they could hardly believe that this was all happening, at once. A release.

Something needed for many, I'll admit. It came from somewhere.

Apple did it, in several ways. Showing an example of how to be everything at once, that people ask for.

So, here we are.

Todays' appointments, often met, on a location where an iPhone passes through the door with people.

Oftentimes, it's this. Becomes something you watch TV on.

Your neck might crane. You might be slowed down.

You might have to

He spoke things that still have a point, today. Because he thought of this two years ago, here, in 2024. After he's passed away.

Steve Jobs is still affecting the world, now, and he's since gone elsewhere. The late Steve Jobs. He's working his magic from beyond the grave.

Consider this.

If you swapped out things that he's doing in 2007 with things that are being done now, you can -still- innovate!

Especially in the format of the Keynote presentation. When you watch the presentation, you want to stay.

He's able to be, here, while we leave. The Earth, eventually. Left by us, it might be in a state that's worse. I think Steve Jobs would want less pollution. Less landfill. Less of the cracked screens that are thrown, ending up on the road, or into a bin. I think he'd want us to realize what we have, now, that he may have put into our hands. He seems like a worker who thinks. Bill Gates, also, has done this, too. We left him in a place where, mostly, he's become fodder for a mill of conspiracy theories. Here's now.

We have that. We have ourselves.

Will we be?

To announce the Power Mac G4 and the 22-inch Cinema Display, Apple took out an incredible 14-page ad in the November 1999 issue of Macworld.
