The First Apple Homepage

April 17, 2015

Looks positively old-fashioned now, but the memories! I don’t remember this particular page, but I do remember compiling and using Mosaic as my first web browser on an old DECstation 5000, my first Unix workstation.

My thoughts about the Lion upgrade process

July 22, 2011

I just finished upgrading our Mac (my wife and I share it) to Lion. It looks very nice. This has been the OS X upgrade to which I have given less thought: purchase, download, backup, install, done.

I think a lot of this has to do with the online distribution. We are used to installing things downloaded from the Internet without much thought (of course there are security considerations, but that's another topic). On the other hand, new OS versions used to be special: you go to the store, or you order it online, it comes in a box, and there used to be an ominous feeling about it. It may wipe all your data, it may make your machine unrecognizable, it may kill your pets.
