Apple has 40 years alive! Yesterday we spent all just focus on 40 years of Apple, today we continue the birthday with photos from 40 years Apple. It is not a complete list of everything that Apple has released in 40 years, but a selection of the things we find that they have played a decisive role in the history of Apple.
# 1 iPhone
Look at the sales figures of Apple and you know where most of the money comes from: the sale of the iPhone has long been Apple’s main source of income. The iPhone seems like a miniature music playing figure at the hands of Steve Jobs. with 4GB of storage, a 3.5-inch multitouch screen and a 620MHz Samsung processor, the first iPhone is a joke compared to later models.
at first, Apple was ridiculed by manufacturers such as Nokia and BlackBerry, because they had no experience of making phones and would fail miserably product. But eventually Apple was the laughing third.
# 2 Think Different
It sometimes seems like the Think Different campaign is very old, it dates back to ‘pass’ in 1997.
Apple made an impressive advertisement in black and white with visionary people, successively Albert Einstein, Bob Dylan, Martin Luther King, Jr., Richard Branson, John Lennon & amp; Yoko Ono, Buckminster Fuller, Thomas Edison, Muhammad Ali, Ted Turner, Maria Callas, Mahatma Gandhi, Amelia Earhart & amp; Bernt Balchen, Alfred Hitchcock, Martha Graham, Jim Henson, Frank Lloyd Wright and Pablo Picasso.
At the end you see a young girl (Shaan Sahota), her eyes open as if she possibilities suddenly sees before him.
# 3 iMac
iMac was the computer that broke Apple to the general public. The funky colors and modern appearance spoke to many people. Steve Wozniak was no longer in the picture; this computer is the result of collaboration between Steve Jobs and Jony Ive.

It was aimed at the mass market, people who were looking for an affordable computer to surf the internet with it. A 56Kb modem was in default.
# 4 Mac OS X
Apple got in 2001 a completely new operating system for the Mac. The launch of OS X 10.0 Cheetah ushered in a new era and the more than 15 years later, still forms the basis of the current OS X.
The big question is what comes next: Apple continues endlessly with OS X ( 10) if there is another version 11?
# 5 iPod
There were rumors that Apple would make an mP3 player, at a time when mP3 players but could contain a piece or 20 songs. Steve Jobs unveiled a device that you could have 1,000 songs in your pocket, designed by Jony Ive.
It changed forever how we listen to music. The 5GB storage was huge for that time. Apple made with a stack of CDs clear how much music you could take it. Still, it was initially not intended to make an iPod. Apple developed iTunes initially to store music files on a hard drive and play.
The development of a portable music came later, when former Philips employee Tony Fadell tried to sell his idea to several manufacturers. No one gasped, until Apple in February 2001 the idea did look down and Fadell hired. Together with Jonathan Rubinstein, responsible for hardware at that time, he developed the iPod.
# 6 Apple Store
You might not see as soon as the product Apple’s retail stores, but there’s more than you think.
New Apple Stores as in Istanbul (photo) and Brussels show how smart design of the stores. Apple has more sales by floor space than luxury shops like Tiffany’s and it is an ideal place to pop stop by when you’re on vacation: the computers are free to use and connected to the Internet, so you just can locate a nice restaurant <. /> p>
# 7 app Store
What was your first app? If you were there you early in 2008, possibly downloaded Cro-Mag Rally and Super Monkey Ball. Shazam and Facebook were also early to the party, like fart- and flashlight apps.
Apple certainly was not the first with an App Store, but it made it easier than ever. Previously you had to work with license codes that you received directly from the developer. Apple made it easy to install updates of apps with one touch of a button. The App Store was published only in 2008, a year after the iPhone was on the market. Initially, Apple found that mobile websites and web apps were good enough.
# 8 iPad
The iPhone had already proven success story, but people were still waiting for some the launch of the first iPad. They would such a device was in between a smartphone and a laptop, we really need? Companies and organizations did see immediately the possibilities: magazines were taken to work on digital editions and across the country conferences and workshops to get started with the iPad.
in the end, it took quite different: the iPad is a TV guide for the bank, a video player for children and a device that mostly seen as a utensil
# 9 Apple’s first computer
The first original Apple computer had no professional looking case yet.; you could go yourself tinkering to make something beautiful out of. The Apple I appeared in 1976 and was designed and built by Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak. His friend Steve Jobs had the idea to create a commercial product.
# 10 Apple Watch
Apple Watch Apple’s first new product since the death of Steve Jobs. Brand New Apple products often require a few years to penetrate the general public and by the Apple Watch is no exception. Since its introduction in 2015, there has often grumbled about the fact that not “everyone” with an Apple Watch out there. Apple is still one of the smaller products, but make no mistake: Apple sold more smart watches than any other manufacturer. Samsung, LG, Sony and Pebble wish they sell so many smart watches as Apple.
However, we will only notice the real impact on the long term. Especially when there are new features coming in the straps, the possibilities are endless.
# 11 iMac G4
iMac G4, known as the ‘light’ is becoming one of the most iconic Apple products of all time. We have one myself standing in the living room as a showpiece and it was one of the first Macs we bought (used).
At that time, computers yellowed cabinets that you prefer hiding under the desk. The iMac was futuristic and sleek but by half-sphere still sweet. You wanted to touch, tilt the screen, pats on the dot.
The ad from that time is just as endearing and still looks out not dated after more than a decade. That includes the design and the material: after so many years he still did not yellowed.
# 12 Lisa
Apple’s Lisa computer in 1983 you do not see so often in reviews of the most iconic products, but the computer was still revolutionary for its time . Think of a built-in screen, a user interface and a mouse (which was not invented by Apple). It was even the first Apple supplied with a mouse and cost $ 10,000. Sales success was not. The computer is named after Jobs’s illegitimate daughter.
