Il malato Steve Jobs

di

Diciamolo con onestà: una persona che non fosse Steve Jobs, con i soldi e la forza di Steve Jobs sarebbe probabilemente già morto per la gravità della patologia che ha avuto. Jobs ha potuto avere i migliori medici, il suo coraggio e tutto il mondo con lui. E ha anche la sfrontatezza di andare a … Leggi tutto

This week, Bloomberg, The Wall Street Journal and TechCrunch all published rumors that Apple plans to launch a smaller, more affordable iPhone, to be sold alongside the iPhone 4. (We predicted as much six weeks ago.)

The WSJ also reported that MobileMe is getting a major revamp in June, allowing users to store most of their data and media in the cloud. We’ve heard the same thing from several sources.

Firstly, according to our source (who asked to remain anonymous), Apple has been working on a smaller, mass-market iPhone for a long time. But to do that, Apple had to figure out a way to strip away some of the components to reduce both its size and cost.

It looks like the modern Mac icon—which was originally created in 1997 and it’s the current Finder’s icon—was inspired by Picasso 1934’s Two Characters. It’s likely a coincidence, but it wouldn’t surprise me. Apple and Picasso go way back:

This is the original Mac icon. It was nicknamed the Picasso Mac, although it wasn’t created by the Spanish genius. While it was inspired by his work, the design was made by Tom Hughes and John Casado, who were art directors on the original Macintosh developement team.

Steve Jobs wasn’t very impressed, but it became the graphic symbol for the Mac, featured in the packaging, manuals and in every old Mac’s Welcome to Macintosh screen, which was displayed as the operating system loaded into memory, just before the extension icons marched on the bottom of the screen.

Later—with the introduction of System 7.5.1—that welcome screen image changed to the “Happy Mac” blue icon. “Welcome to Mac OS” it said, which made fanboys sad.
