Today is an important day in computer history. For those who have talked to me for more than a minute, you've probably heard me compare the crypto industry to the hobbyist computer industry's path, drawing comparisons across the board. I want to take a moment and reflect on this excerpt from Jobs' Macintosh unveiling.

I recall the days in 2006 being the first few users of Macintosh in my university, we loved it so much, we started a student led tech support. Macintosh is more than a system, it is a culture, a lifestyle, a belief. Many similarities to the crypto industry.

That was when I fled my parents Mac only ecosystem and got my first windows Laptop

Warez was unparalleled for windows

Apple shareware couldn’t come close

Now that laptops are web terminals I love my MacBook again!

When I was a kid, I loved windows for the warez.

Somehow now I love Apple for having a BSD base.
