              Computer History Museum Panel Celebrates Apple at 50

   Adam Engst

   The Computer History Museum has hosted a panel discussion, '[1]Apple at
   50: Five Decades of Thinking Different.' Moderated by long-time
   journalist and author David Pogue as the kickoff event for his new
   book, '[2]Apple: The First 50 Years' (which I'm still reading), the
   panel brings together numerous figures from Apple's history. TidBITS
   readers will all recognize former Apple CEO John Sculley, of course,
   and Apple's longest-serving employee, Chris Espinosa, has been
   [3]mentioned in TidBITS multiple times. But what really makes the event
   stand out are stories from lesser-known figures, like Bill Fernandez,
   the guy who introduced Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, and Ronald Wayne,
   Apple's third founder. Others who share their stories include Robert
   Brunner, who built Apple's in-house industrial design studio (and hired
   Jony Ive), plus the former NeXT employees Avie Tevanian and Jon
   Rubinstein, who came over to Apple with Steve Jobs. Tevanian led the
   transition from the classic Mac OS to Mac OS X, and Rubinstein led
   hardware engineering through the iMac and iPod era. It's well worth
   carving out some time to watch the presentation, which, beyond the
   interesting historical stories, features David Pogue at his inimitable
   best.
