Genuine question.

I know they were the scrappy startup doing different cool things. But, what are the most major innovative things that they introduced, improved or just implemented that either revolutionized, improved or spurred change?

I am aware of the possibility of both fanboys and haters just duking it out below. But there's always that one guy who has a fkn well-formatted paragraph of gold. I await that guy.

Bullshit in computing connected to being with "anti-culture". Everybody puts bullshit in adverts, but being a Mac user or liking Apple's style and approach somewhere in 2007 still had some association with "underground", which is amazingly weird.

On a serious note - Hypercard. I'd love that today.
