Why are we called 1984?
Ok, after the two thousandth email asking me, "why are you called 1984?"  I'll come clean. 1984 'IS' the year it all began for Mac users. The term Mac came into being with the release of the 128k Macintosh computer. The 128 was the most innovative machine of its era. If you click to the 'under the bonnet' column in this issue you can learn more about the machine that started a culture.

Just like today, Mac's are the innovative machines other companies strive to follow. I wanted something short and to the point,1984 was the year it all begin and we are a homage to that. 1984 OnLine Magazine carries the attributes and philosophies that made Apple what it is today- Style, dedication and thinking different...enjoy!
