Insanely Great

I've been reading Stephen Levy's book about the rise of the Macintosh - Insanely Great. It's a really good read if a little dated. I still remember that tingly feeling when I first saw a Mac Plus and it really was insanely great for it's time. We owe a lot to the Mac and the emphasis on instant usability and intuitive interfaces is something we would do well to emulate in our fancy Web 2.0 interfaces.
