Remember when Apple brought graphical operating systems to every house and made internet available for common households?

Cooper Martinez
Lol this 26 year old boomer thinks you can't push dsl over a wet noodle
Owen Price
That's a weird way of spelling Windows 95...
Grayson Wood
Windows 95 did not originally even have tcp/IP you stupid fag
Isaac Wilson
Remember when Apple lost their kernel source for Mac OS 9 and kept hacking on shit tier patches ad infinitum which caused the system to be so unstable that it had a third party app to create and read error logs? Remember when their PowerPC Macs were absolute ovens that would burn a hole through your desk? Remember when Mac OS 9 didn't even have a terminal? Remember when they soldered in the RAM, and then the SSD? Remember when they added some faggy touch bar gimmick to laptops and made their desktop and mobile UIs into a gay pride parade? Remember when they sold 29 dongles with every new machine just so you can connect your new iToy to it? Remember when they paid Indian shills to poo in the Jow Forums catalog?
Boy do I sure remember.
Brody Lopez
It's funny how kids these days actually think that when the 80's existed.
You know Windows was years behind others.
Grayson Cooper
>Remember when Apple lost their kernel source for Mac OS 9
Nope. 9.x was the last of the Classic MacOSs. It wouldn't matter if they "lost" the source, in fact Steve would have loved that.
Did you know that Microsoft once set up a project to refactor Windows to try and get the source under control? It failed (obviously) and so Windows, bandaids and all, stumbles on. Encrusted with decades of legacy patches and kluges, still bleeding from the attempts to "modernize" it, Windows blunders on.
Samuel Butler
who the fuck didn't buy an addin card though?
modems where the shit
Evan Price
No normal people used Xerox.
Josiah Collins
lol eurofag
Colton Harris
wtf you babling about. Sure if Micro$soft would have their way we would be still calling throught landlines some BBS to shitpost in small circles. But because of Apple we now have TCP/IP and thus internet is available everybody
Easton Price
yes it did, it just wasn't installed by default
Brayden Williams
No it didn't. Win95 got TCP/IP because apple made internet available to everybody thus micro$oft had to include later it to it's operating system
Parker Parker
>Micro$soft would have their way we would be still calling throught landlines some BBS to shitpost in small circles
WTF I love MS now!
Levi Powell
>because of Apple we now have TCP/IP
TCP/IP development predates the founding of Apple
Tyler Gray
Who cares? Apple brought it to the people thus it became actually usable. Nobody cares shit which nobody uses
Kevin Roberts
>Remember when Apple lost their kernel source for Mac OS 9 and kept hacking on shit tier patches ad infinitum which caused the system to be so unstable
So, pretty much what they're still doing?
Asher Gomez
"well apple made it usable!" is the weakest, most overused argument you people make
it's unquantifiable, and meaningless
Easton Hughes
>Nobody cares shit which nobody uses
This. Microsoft and IBM cloners brought computing to the masses. Nobody gave a shit about Applel and their 0% market presence.
John Torres
>internet for all
>meaningless
Noah Reed
0/10
Christopher Flores
The company that REALLY brought the Internet to every household.
Liam Turner

*in murrica
Joshua Gonzalez
most of the time they just took the risk and won the time race, it would come from other company in course of few years
Nathan Clark
Nope. Micro$oft and IBM/clones were pushing NetBIOS and they had huge userbase. Apple singlehandedly pushed TCP/IP which popularized internet and M$ and IBM had to ditch DOS and actually and adapt graphical enviroment and TCP/IP so we could share meme.jpg which cannot be even viewed with DOS. There were no other competition
Jacob Baker
they've never been first at anything, they just had a master marketer (jobs) to convince people to finally believe they needed
that's all jobs was good at
Justin Evans
>research development predates production development
just wow
Carson Evans
godlike
Joseph Reyes
all they did was steal from other companies
Juan Wilson
That was Commodore's Amiga - your memory is faulty. Friendly reminder to always insist on Samsung B-die.
Robert Gutierrez
No, we and everyone I new owned PCs. Didn't see a crapple until like 3rd grade.
John James
Nope, I haven't even heard of Apple until iPhone came. My first os was win95.
Nicholas Murphy
No normal people used LisaOS either. Damn system costs as much as a new Jeep did back in the day.
Nolan Ortiz
Robert Williams
No form or precursor to the Internet was widely used even in the late 80s dipshit.
Ryder Turner
I remember my PowerPC 604 ran cool as a cucumber, don't know what you're talking about. But I also remember convincing my dad not to upgrade to Mac OS 9 because my school had it on their fancy new iMacs and it kept crashing constantly. OS 8.6 forever.
