- On January 7, 1999 at MacWorld in San Francisco Steve Jobs and Phil Schiller introduced the new and redesigned Power Macintosh G3. Apart from that - Steve Jobs talked about FireWire: Apple intended FireWire to be a serial replacement for the parallel SCSI bus while providing connectivity for digital audio and video equipment. Jobs was sure, that FireWire would become the one and only standard.

I always wanted to go to macworld for one of Steve's reveals, he was a master salesman.
Damn, the case still looks good today
Some of these specs amaze me for the time. 100 GB of storage, in 1999? Hell, that would be usable even today. 1 GB of RAM? It wouldn't be usable today for Windows or macOS, but might be able to run Linux even in 2021. Gigabit ethernet? Used today! And USB--obviously Apple bet correctly on the uptake of that standard and the demise of parallel ports. USB is still being used today. Pretty neat to see how advanced this machine was for the time.
I recommend you watch IMNC's "World's Fastest G3" series, he puts a rare 1GHz G3 in it (even though it can take a G4) and maxes out the RAM and graphics card and OS, and even puts SSDs in it :)
I remember when my uncle got 1 GB hard disk space on his computer
I'm like "how the hell are you going to use up 1 GB of space?"
Fun times.
Hah i can use a terabyte
@@emanuelrushaj young man, back in my day 1gb was 8000 pictures. Nobody had more than 10 pictures on the computer if even that.
Windows 3.11 baby
@@deadzen i was talking abt today i like programming making vids and creating vms on my pc so i could easy use one tb
@@emanuelrushaj young man, today I have 10tb storage and currently using 8 of on my personal computer system
Really glad to see colorful iMacs make a comeback in 2021, and Steve's philosophy on color and the consumer is still accurate today, so I'm shocked it took them this long to return to their roots. Hopefully the next batch of Macbooks come in color too.
1:38:04 -This however didn't age too well, lol.
25mb PSD? that’s so cute.
Also Steve needs a cough drop.
These videos are going to go down in history. They are such a step back into how things were.
Starting at 37:30 is when Steve Jobs first showed us the future. The foundation for technology in the 21st century. And it wasn't even obvious at the time. Watching it now, I get chills.
Oh definitely. Great observation on your part.
Yea how he somehow managed to find technologies way ahead of their times always fascinated me. Wasn't he the one who found out about Xerox, mouse and cursor stuffs?
Damn, that presence, that confidence! I don't worship the guy like Apple people, but Jobs knew how to sell!
I really wish I had been into computers at this time (but I was into gaming on the PS1), there was so much exciting technology happening in computers. It's really just more of the same these days, now that computers, phones and tablets have sort of plateaued in terms of innovation as software and operating systems have become more bloated. But then again, despite the bloat, you could argue that software is catching up to the processing power available. Yes, the processors, graphics and RAM have gotten faster, battery life has increased, but nothing has been a real game changer in the past few years. I honestly could go back to the early 2000s and be perfectly happy with a basic cellphone, 1 Mb broadband, a fast single core computer with 512 MB of RAM and a 128 MB Radeon 9800 videocard!
Also a fun fact: the main processing cores in the Gamecube, Wii, and Wii U are all derivatives of the same PowerPC 750 design used for the G3. The differences really just like with clock speed, instruction support, and amount of L2 cache. The Wii U's Expresso CPU is the most unique with 3 cores, running up to 1.25 GHz, one core has 2 MB L2 cache, the other two have 512 KB. Neato.
Heck John Carmack looked as if he just didn't wanna be there LOL he left with as much as a "aye OK can I can I go now " LOL.
My fav computer ever. Loved the little "check out final cut, it's not ready yet...."
My dad had one that he left me with his things when he passed away. I never hooked it up to the Internet. I do you still use yours? I love the machine and the older tech, which I was just new to then. I never saw one other than the one he had, there was no where to buy one here, all the stores only had PC's. I'm so glad that I found Apple on my own when I got older.
Great Video!!!

"It just works." -Steve Jerbs
How'd you get the WHOLE vid?!
I think he'd be blown away by Apple's market value!
wow 50 imac iwant that pc
High end graphics card for 200 bucks good times indeed
If I had a dollar for every time Steve cleared his throat I would be a millionaire
anginas
came looking for this comment
In 2020 we have only "3x faster and amazing" in November presentation :) I wanted to see such comparison with Intel / M1 chips
Why are all these keynote videos from Apple such crap quality? Even in 1999 the quality wasn't this bad. Where are the originals??
Apple probably has the originals in their vault. In 1999 this was probably the best quality stream that internet connections could handle.
its because he is using linux and his opinion is fact.
Steve was literally the Walt Disney of the Tech industry
Shame they both died too soon
What is with the constant throat clearing though!? STOP!!!
+Bo Dez It's the cancer bro, that's why he diedededed :(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(::(:(:(:(:(:(:(
@MacHappy uhmm i don't think someone has constant cancer for 12 years without dieing (ik he died but having 12 year long cancer and then you die is impossible)
1:23:00 wait is this even legal
But can it beat a pentium 3?
bg048 that was for the G4 to deal with.
back when apple actually showed the hardware, now they just release shit and hope the hipsters will buy it
power pc from INTEL? LOL
You can almost hear someone in the crowd go "Uhh, you meant IBM right?"
I notice over the years Apple puts on a good show, well, they put on a show. And every show starts out with a expiation of what happened with the last product line that led to people saying Apple sucks and that its going out of business because one of their products ended up not really working or having problems.
They hang on by a thread year after year, and because they keep this show going, and they keep apologizing for the overpriced garbage they keep putting ot. Year after year they put out crap on the market, there hardware is always plagued with problems, people constantly get ripped off, and yet because they keep saying sorry for screwing you over people keep falling for it.
enjoy your IOS 8 or 8. whatever, and dont bend your phone when they have another song and dance show they will tell you they are sorry and yet again market annalist said we were done for but we survived.
Wait? What company just reported the most profit in a quarter for all time? Oh right, Apple!
The Pentium III didn't exist in 1999.
it did, but not for the whole year.
just really old processors lmfao
obviously they were new at the time.
What the fuck is that coughing the entire video
What a crock, go post on another site please.
What a crock, go watch another video please.
