In the early 1980s, Steve Jobs became OBSESSED in Apple's secret "Lisa" project, which aimed to create a personal computer with a graphical user interface (GUI) and a mouse. EVEN named his daughter Lisa. But, the Lisa's delays and high costs (Not the baby), Jobs shifted focus to a smaller project led by Jef Raskin, called the "Macintosh." Jobs took over the Macintosh project in 1981, driving the team to create an affordable, user-friendly computer with a GUI. Launched in 1984, the Macintosh featured the iconic "1984" Super Bowl commercial. Though not an immediate commercial success, the Macintosh revolutionized personal computing and interface design, influencing future Apple products. Jobs' pivot from Lisa to Macintosh and his emphasis on design and user experience turned a potential failure into a groundbreaking achievement, demonstrating his knack for turning setbacks into innovative opportunities, and being THE complete visionary.
