  Macintosh
       
           (Mac) A range of single user, 32-bit personal
          computers manufactured by Apple Computer, Inc., originally
          based on the Motorola 68000 microprocessor family and a
          proprietary operating system.  The Mac was Apple's successor
          to the Lisa.
       
          The project was proposed by Jef Raskin some time before
          Steve Jobs's famous visit to Xerox PARC.  Jobs tried to
          scuttle the Macintosh project and only joined it later because
          he wasn't trusted to manage the Lisa project.
       
          The Macintosh user interface was notable for popularising
          the graphical user interface, with its easy to learn and
          easy to use desktop metaphor.
       
          The Macintosh Operating System is now officially called
          Mac OS.
       
          The first Macintosh, introduced in January 1984, had a
          Motorola 68000 CPU, 128K of RAM, a small monochrome
          screen, and one built-in floppy disk drive with an external
          slot for one more, two serial ports and a four-voice sound
          generator.  This was all housed in one small plastic case,
          including the screen.  When more memory was available later in
          the year, a 512K Macintosh was nicknamed the "Fat Mac."
       
          The standard Macintosh screen resolution is 72 dpi (making
          one point = one pixel), exactly half the 144 dpi
          resolution of the ancient Apple Imagewriter dot matrix
          printer.
       
          The Mac Plus (January 1986) added expandability by providing
          an external SCSI port for connecting hard disks, magnetic
          tape, and other high-speed devices.
       
          The Mac SE (March 1987) had up to four megabytes of RAM, an
          optional built-in 20 megabyte hard disk and one internal
          expansion slot for connecting a third-party device.
       
          The Mac II (March 1987) used the faster Motorola 68020 CPU
          with a 32-bit bus.
       
          In 1994 PowerPC based Macs, PowerMacs, were launched, and
          in 1999, the iMac, updated on 2002-01-07.  PowerMacs clocked
          at over 1GHz were planned for 2002-01-22, to be followed by
          dual 1GHz processors and "Superdrive" (combined DVD-ROM,
          DVD-RW, CD-ROM, CD-RW).
       
          If "Macintosh" were an acronym, some say it would stand for
          "Many Applications Crash, If Not, The Operating System Hangs".
          While this was true for pre Mac OS 9 systems, it is less true
          for Mac OS 9, and totally incorrect for Mac OS X, which has
          protected memory, so even if one application crashes, the
          system and other applications are unaffected.
       
          See also Macintosh file system, Macintosh user interface.
