X marks the spot

March 24, 2001

Today marked the make or brake day for the future of Apple. This morning thousands of Mac users decended upon retail stores or got up unusually early in the morning to wait for that white FedEx truck carrying their copy of MacOS X.

Yes, I was one of them. I dragged myself out of bed, grabbed a starbucks mocha and perched by my window looking for that FedEx truck. You have to be a Mac user to understand the fanaticism surrouding the release of this new operating system.

(And yes, I ripped open the box and installed it right away)
