Microsoft’s fiftieth anniversary was final week, and to commemorate the occasion, Microsoft revealed a fiftieth Anniversary Unique Microsoft Floor Laptop computer. Whereas I’m not considering such a tool, it positive does look fairly dang cool.
The laptop computer has a black case with a Floor emblem in shiny gold (as a result of, you already know, the fiftieth anniversary is the golden anniversary). That’s neat, however once you open the laptop computer, you’ll discover the Microsoft emblem from 1975 on the backside proper of the keyboard. When the laptop computer begins up, it has a particular gold Home windows 11 wallpaper. Microsoft is operating a sweepstakes to offer away of fifty of those laptops.
General, the fiftieth Anniversary Floor appears to be like candy… however I can’t assist however suppose it wouldn’t look significantly better as a MacBook. Think about subsequent 12 months, when Apple marks its fiftieth anniversary, the corporate points a brand new black colour–not Midnight, not House Black, however Black–with the Apple emblem designed by Rob Janoff, the one on the Apple II with the six-color Apple and the “Apple” textual content emblem aligned with the apple chew. Then, once you begin this particular version MacBook, you might be greeted with a particular wallpaper of the unique Apple emblem with Sir Isaac Newton sitting below an Apple tree, created by Ronald Wayne. That may be superior.
Apple has been recognized to let anniversaries move by, but it surely’s not with out priority. In 2017, the iPhone X marked the tenth anniversary of the iPhone, and again in 1997, Apple unveiled particular commemorative Mac {hardware} for the corporate’s twentieth anniversary, often called the Twentieth Anniversary Mac or TAM. Will Apple shock us and make a special-edition MacBook for its fiftieth? I do know I’d purchase one, even when I needed to go into severe debt to take action.
