Such showmanship and theatrics, he pulls the floppy disc out like a magician pulling a rabbit outta a hat.
Only thing he forgot was the <i>right</i> mouse button

Funny thing was all the pictures are of people holding the Macintosh up, as if it was a Tablet-PC, haha. Oh, wait, for its day it was. <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile_blush.gif border=0 align=middle> <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile_clown.gif border=0 align=middle>

I still can't get over the biz suit & big hair (now it's short hair & jeans/black-turtlenecks). <i>"If the C.E.O. is cool then his products are coooool!"</i> <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle> <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle>
