Keynote Address Terrace Room, Park Plaza Hotel Multimedia IsMore Than a One-Way Telephone Roger Wagner, President, Roger Wagner Publishing, Inc. Sincerely, When telephones were first invented, they were sold with the idea of only listening to commercial offerings. Does this sound familiar?

Developer(s) Microsoft Stable release 12.2.1 Build 090605 (2008) / August 6, 2009 Operating system Mac OS X Type Word processor License Proprietary EULA [2] Website Microsoft Word Mac Microsoft Word is Microsoft's word processing software. It was first released in 1983 under the name Multi-Tool Word for Xenix systems.[3] [4] [5] Versions were later written for several other platforms including IBM PCs running DOS (1983), the Apple Macintosh (1984), SCO UNIX, OS/2 and Microsoft Windows (1989). It is a component of the Microsoft Office system; however, it is also sold as a standalone product and included in Microsoft Microsoft Word 2 Works Suite. Beginning with the 2003 version, the branding was revised to emphasize Word's identity as a component within the Office suite; Microsoft began calling it Microsoft Office Word instead of merely Microsoft Word. The latest releases are Word 2007 for Windows and Word 2008 for Mac OS X, while Word 2007 can also be run emulated on Linux[6] . There are commercially available add-ins that expand the functionality of Microsoft Word. History Word 1981 to 1989 Concepts and ideas of Word were brought from Bravo, the original GUI writing word processor developed at Xerox PARC.[7] [8] On February 1, 1983, development on what was originally named Multi-Tool Word began.

    Apple Inc.: Computers 1 Infinity Loop, Cupertino, California 95014 December 8, 2008 CMM 321A __________________ Jenna Murray __________________ Nicole Montague __________________ Will Lenihan __________________ Mark Clement __________________ Michael Lazzaro 1 Brand History In 1975 computer hobbyists Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs designed and assembled by hand the Apple I computer (Young and Simon 32-34). It was composed of a single circuit board, a MOStek 6502 processor, a keyboard, and featured 8k of RAM as well as video interface (Wozniak 161; “Inventors of the Modern Computer”). Wozniak would years later say of his invention: “I wanted to design a machine that did something, on a TV you turn a knob and it does something. On my computer, you push a few buttons and switches and lights would come on (Young and Simon 15).” In 1976, Wozniak and Jobs displayed their creation for the first time at the Homebrew Computer Club, a computer hobbyist organization local to Palo Alto, California (Wozniak 166-7; “Apple I”). Many there viewed the Apple I as nothing more than a novelty, due to the fact that it used a MOStek 6502 processor, which was cheaper and less complex than the more widely used Intel 8080 processor (“Apple I”). Despite this fact a local computer distributor called “The Byte Shop” viewed the Apple I and decided to order 50 units at $500 per machine (Young and Simon 35). The computer went on sale in July 1976 at the market price of $666.66, marking the beginning of apple computers (Wozniak 185). Around 200 Apple I‟s were sold by several small retailers before the release of Apple II (“Company: Apple Computer, Inc.”).

  • John Sculley in Conversation with David Greelish
    John Sculley: The Truth About Me, Apple, and Steve Jobs Part One Interviewed by: David Greelish Recorded: December 2011 Transcribed by: Julie Kuehl CHM Reference number: X6382.2012 © The Mac Observer, Inc. John Sculley / David Greelish Hi. My name is David Greelish from ClassicComputing.com and I’m a computer historian. I write and produce podcasts about computer history nostalgia. I’m also a huge fan of the Macintosh, Apple Computer, and, of course, Steve Jobs. I am and have been very inspired by Steve. But I’m also a fan of John Sculley and have owned his book for many years. John Sculley has a bad rap. He is blamed for firing Steve Jobs, as well as almost bankrupting Apple. I fell in love with the Mac and Apple in late 1986, while John was at the helm. Thus began my romance with the company, the Mac, and other Apple products, and the culture in being one within the minority of personal computing. A non-DOS, then non- Windows user. A Mac user. It was a few years later that I started studying computer history. I’ve been learning more about the two Steves, Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak. In recent years, and now after Steve’s death, John Sculley has been very remorseful for his actions surrounding Steve’s departure from the company. I believe that John has been way too hard on himself about this. As he took his position seriously as CEO, took a stand on the decision about the Apple ][, then was essentially forced by Steve to have the board vote between them.

  • Chapter 10 Apple Computer in the 1980'S
    Chapter 10 Apple Computer in the 1980's As a dominant personal computer manufacturer in 1980, Apple Computer had distinct characteristics. It had developed in the Apple II and the related disk drive, technology and ease-of-use features that enabled it to make the transition from hobbyist or technical hacker user to the mass consumer market. These innovations and the release of VisiCalc spreadsheet software resulted in the commercial success of the company. It had espoused statements such as “Never build a computer you wouldn’t want to own” and “One person -- one computer.” The visit to the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center (PARC) in 1979 changed the course of product development. The new PARC human interface concepts suited the vision of Apple. It continued the innovative initiatives of Wozniak. The development of the Lisa computer and the Macintosh computer that would be the future of Apple in the 1980’s. 10.1 ... Corporate & Other Activities Public Stock Offering The initial founders Jobs, Wozniak, Markkula, Holt and the venture capitalists who provided the financing had a tight control of the Apple Computer shares. Markkula also kept a firm control on the later sale and award of Apple shares. Initial shares went through several splits that significantly increased their value. A share distributed before April 1979 was the equivalent of thirty-two shares on the day that Apple went public. During 1980 the market for new stock issues had improved. In August 1980 the Apple Computer board of directors decided to make a public offering of shares in the company.
