Adobe, Radius, Aldus and Altsys made the Mac happen, certainly not Steve Jobs by any stretch of the imagination, IMHO. Had it not been for the convenient timing of the Dawn of DTP, brought about by the talent that left Xerox PARC to found the companies that drove the GUI into a huge niche market, if not the mainstream, the Mac would have died on the vine. The horror that was Windows 286, and then 3.0 failed to overtake the lead of the Mac, or the Mac and Apple would have gone the way of the Apple/// and the Lisa, into oblivion.
Warnock, founding Adobe after his work at the PARC, was the alchemist who conjured the PostScript binding of the DTP revolution. Radius provided the Canvas to replace the Mac's Cameo Display for Linotronic output set in PageMaker with Logos and graphics done in Fontographer.
It was a great time to be alive and active in the industry, back in that day! :beige:
