Birthplace of the Macintosh Computer

LA PLAYA CARMEL 
BY THE SEA 

Birthplace of 
Macintosh Computer 
January 27-28, 1983 

In this room Steve Jobs 
unveiled the Macintosh computer 
prototype during a development 
team retreat, and ceremoniously 
christened it with a bottle of 
La Playa Carmel water. 
 

This weekend, in a room at the @LaPlayaCA I saw a plaque on the wall, so I read it! Obvi. That room was where Steve Jobs first revealed the #Macintosh to @apple's employees during a 1983 retreat. The ensuing party got them banned from until 2013. 🤭🤣 #alwaysreadtheplaque https://t.co/4cejJ4XaHH Tweet
