 This morning I was reflecting on HP's webOS announcements, and on the difference between Steve Jobs and everyone else when it comes to announcing new products.  Which prompted me to go back into the archives, and unearth some of his most memorable presentations...  1983 - pre-Macintosh screening of "1984" commercial
 an oldie but goodie, young Steve Jobs talking about the PC industry
  1998 - iMac
 first big act back in control of Apple
 (note suit!)
  1999 - iBook
  2000 - OS X
 a key moment, handled beautifully
  2001 - iPod
 I love this one, little did anyone know the revolution being unleashed
 (so low-key!)
  2003 - iTunes music store
 this was BIG and everyone knew it
  2003 - Safari web browser
  2004 - iPod mini
  2005 - Intel processors
 huge news at the time, a major announcement, handled amazingly
  2005 - iPod Nano
  2005 - Mac Mini
  2007 - iPhone
 possibly his finest ever, and unquestionably the most historic
 nobody knew then that Apple truly had reinvented the phone
 ...and the computer...
  2008 - Macbook Air
  2008 - App Store
 not his most dynamic, but perhaps the most important, as the dynasty begins
  2010 - iPad
 not his best, but one of the most important
 little did we know 15M would be sold in 2010, wow!
  2010 - AppleTV
 not a huge success so far but a sleeper... stay tuned :)
  2011 - IOS 5 and iCloud
 Apple joins a big trend, but can they execute?
