The 30-Year-Old Macintosh and a Lost Conversation With Steve Jobs - NYTimes.com

"Mr. Levy pressed again. “The question I was getting at is, what’s driving you here?”
“Well, it’s like computers and society are out on a first date in this decade, and for some crazy reason we’re just in the right place at the right time to make that romance blossom,” Mr. Jobs replied, noting that the 1980s were the beginning of the computing revolution. “We can make them great, we can make a great product that people can easily use.”
