Apple Clothing Line
Apple’s foray into the world of fashion began in 1986 with the launch of their clothing line. The range included everything from trucker hats to umbrellas, and even what could be considered the first ever Apple watch. The clothing line was short-lived, but it was a bold move for the tech giant and a sign of things to come.
Apple II Graphics Tablet
The Apple II Graphics Tablet was released in the 1980s, decades before the iPad and even before their very first mouse. This device allowed users to connect to their computers and use a stylus to draw digital images, one of the first times this was possible. The tablet was a precursor to the modern graphics tablets we use today and a testament to Apple’s innovative spirit.
Macintosh TV
The Macintosh TV was a hybrid device that combined a cable-ready television with a full-on desktop computer. Apple saw this as a way to combine two similar devices into one, but unfortunately, it was too expensive for those just looking for a TV and too underpowered for those looking for a high-end computer.
Apple QuickTake
In 1994, Apple released the QuickTake, which was considered one of the greatest digital cameras of all time. This is remarkable considering it had a 0.3 megapixel sensor and was only capable of taking black and white photos. The QuickTake was a revolutionary device for its time and paved the way for the digital cameras we use today.
