"40 Years of Mac: From Mr. Macintosh to the 2023 iMac"
As the Apple Macintosh turns 40, a little-known anecdote about Mr. Macintosh, a character commissioned by Steve Jobs to live inside each Mac and surprise the owner, has resurfaced. The idea was to have Mr. Macintosh pop up occasionally and wink at the user, creating a mysterious and playful experience. Although the project didn't come to fruition due to technical constraints, it remains a fascinating piece of Mac history and has led to highly sought-after collectibles featuring the character's illustrations by Belgian artist Jean-Michel Folon.
