As some might have noticed, I've read two books on Apple in a row. There are at least two other well-known ones I should read. But for now I'm watching a Netflix documentary on him while I catalog my parents' library on LibraryThing. Here's a shot they showed, an outtake really, with the Anchor Steam just out of the intended crop. :) 🐌

Leftcoastzen Yummy Anchor Steam! I really liked insanely great. (edited) 5y

Comfort read, but not without good advice. The early chapters are pure macaroni and cheese. For me, it was like reviewing old photo albums—albums I now only understand fully. But Levy goes comically wrong thinking about his present (1993, with an afterward from 2000) and the future. Reporters can gather and synthesis others‘ wisdom about technology, but I'm afraid they can‘t manufacture their own.

rabbitprincess Even the font of the title is visual mac and cheese! I love indulging in tech nostalgia so may have to try to find this book. 5y
TimSpalding @rabbitprincess Yeah, it's nostalgia. But also, for a tech person like me, brain food. Unfortunately, as with the last Apple book I read—Creative Selection—the differences between the Mac team and teams I work with is too high. I mean, we simply don't have the extra bandwidth to make demos for everything we do, yet that's the center of the Apple process. 5y

Hello! Sorey I've been mostly off line today. My laptop (not my primary computer, to my relief) decided to do the Mac grey screen of death today. Which led to a full reinstall. With having had to do the same to my phone last week, I'm not happy. My main machine is backed up three different ways, so I'm not worried, but still. Urgh!

JacqMac Not great, but least you were able to get it back. Whew! 6y
tournevis @JacqMac Back ups. Redundent back ups. 6y

1. Apple
2. I usually read on my iPad Pro or iPad Mini, but I also have a Kindle Paperwhite
3. Marvin, Goodreads
4. My poor iMac desktop is sadly neglected, since I use my iPad Pro for almost everything

JoScho Yeah the iPad really leaves little room for use of the desktop unless you do a lot of document type stuff. 6y

Sitting here trying to catch up on my reading while eating an apple... I now feel like I have committed some horrible crime... Please, fruit... Do not look like you have arteries, it freaks me out and makes me feel bad. #theshadowcabinet #shadowcabinet #appleaday #macintosh #creepyfruit #maureenjohnson I love this series 💕🖤
