Macintosh 128K/512K Technical Details
The original Macintosh was a relatively simple machine, now of interest for its simplicity and for the fact that it was the first computer produced by Apple under the name Macintosh. The Macintosh used standard off-the-shelf components to the greatest extent possible. However, Apple did not compromise on the features which now define personal computers. The resulting design implemented an aggressive feature set at a moderate price point by mixing complex LSI chips, readily customizable programmable array logic, and off-the-shelf components.

“Then he told the news media
the strange details of his death
and they hammered him up in the marketplace
and sold him and sold him and sold him.
