The Macintosh computer turns 30 on 1/24/14 and as a Mac Evangelist turned iPad Evangelist, an educator turned entrepreneur, and a MacGirl since childhood, I wanted to pay tribute! So I wrote a poem and found some cool photos and put together a short love letter :) Happy Birthday! Thanks Apple™ Inc. and Steve Jobs, for all the great memories and hours of educational and entertaining activities; for myself and then for those I trained in Mac tech, and for those children with Autism/Special Needs who have learned better with Mac Tech, and/or benefited from it at school and at home.

- 2. A Love Letter to Mac Remember when the trash icon was at the bottom right below Remember saving stuff to a floppy when working "on the go"? Remember how you could tweak which music played when turning the Mac on? Remember when "screen capture” & MacPaint gave you hours of clean fun? Remember how relieved you'd be to see Mac's "smiling face"? Remember how anxious you got if/when you saw "the bomb" icon in its place? Remember hearing about Macworld and quickly running to the store? Remember happily finding "The Macintosh Bible" filled with tips and lore?
- 3. A Love Letter to Mac Remember Mac's pretty colors, artistry personified? Remember its transparent case so you could actually peek inside? Remember the "puck mouse" and first time you saw a port for USB? Remember when you learned how to "rip" a movie and CD? Remember learning iWork and iLife to enhance your own workflow? Remember switching to Leopard and sitting back to watch movies on Front Row?
- 4. A Love Letter to Mac Remember seeing the Mac App Store for the very first time? Remember gleefully downloading all those Apps that didn't cost a dime? Remember when Spaces and Automator seemed like AI just for you? Remember when Time Machine seemed much too good to be true? Remember the first time you used iChat then Air Drop to share files? Remember your first FaceTime visit with someone across the miles?
