  • I miss PRO GO WHOA

    Does anyone remember after Steve came back to Apple that they twice updated the Apple homepage with a hint about new products.

    I believe it was only the night before the "Apple Event" but the 2 I remember were:



    The apple page with 3 images and nothing else:

    a cookie

    a shopping cart

    a screw driver



    to signify the new "chip" (G3), the online store and the build to order option



    Then a few months later there was

    PRO

    GO

    WHOA



    Pro was the Professional line of Power Macs, GO was the Wall Street G3 Powerbooks and of course, WHOA was the iMac.



    Now we just get invitations to the press about a "revolutionary new product".
