The beauty of this is that everyone in that room recognized the utility and the accessibility that the Mac provided. Contrast that to today’s demonstrations; many of today’s advancements are so technical and specialized that most users feel like they need to be experts to access those features.

That’s what makes this demo so fantastic.
