This Picture Shows How Far Apple Computers Have Come In 30 Years

Nov 25, 2014, 00:31 IST

Apple computers have come a long way since Steve Jobs unveiled the original Macintosh 30 years ago.

Things of Interest blogger Kent Akgungor has created a great image that showcases that progress, comparing the pixel densities of the original Macintosh with Apple's newest iMac, which features a 5K Retina display.

While the first Macintosh only had a resolution of 512 by 342 pixels, the new iMac boasts a resolution of 5120 × 2880, which Akgungor points out is quite the leap.

That's an increase from 175,000 pixels to more than 14.7 million - an 8,400% increase. 80 of the original Macintosh displays fit within a single Retina 5K display.

Akgungor thought up a clever way to showcase this jump in resolution, overlaying the original Macintosh's display onto one of Apple's screenshots from the new iMac's display.
