The movie is the story behind the predecessor of the iPhone. A bit nerdy. Not so technical.

Die dring[end]ste Aufgabe, die wir im neuen Jahrtausend beantworten müssen… ist welches Menschenbild mit seiner grundlegenden Metaphorik unser Denken, Erfinden, unserer Schöpfung usw. in der nahen und fernen Zukunft formen wird. Zwei wissenschaftliche Strömungen des Denkens und Handelns werden nach meiner Auffassung die Antwort bestimmen: Generell die Weiterentwicklung von Computern sowie die [??] Entwicklung der Biologie, speciell die Gentechnik. Diese zwei Strömungen haben bereits mit der Verschmelzung begonnen – und sie werden weiter zusammen wachsen – sowie z.B. Rechner und Kommunikation es schon gemacht haben. –Joseph Weizenbaum

The open web was built on assumptions such as that visitors are mostly human, that traffic roughly tracks readership, and that the cost of serving your site is related to the value you get from serving it. Every one of those assumptions is now out of date.

The entire article is a treasure. I’ve realized that the original core harware and software design team paints a quite different picture of the historic events. Sure, Mac inherited concepts and people from Lisa. But also the Apple II philosophy has played a remarkable role; e.g. save chips to drive down the prise tag.

Jobs: If you read the Apple's first brochure, the headline was “Simplicity is the Ultimate Sophistication.” What we meant by that was that when you first attack a problem it seems really simple because you don’t understand it. Then when you start to really understand it, you come up with these very complicated solutions because it’s really hairy. Most people stop there. But a few people keep burning the midnight oil and finally understand the underlying principles of the problem and come up with an elegantly simple solution for it. But very few people go the distance to get there.

Stebe Jobs (October 1983): If you read the Apple's first brochure, the headline was “Simplicity is the Ultimate Sophistication.”
