Daniel Hruska Igundane liyingxenye ebalulekile yamakhompiyutha e-Apple kusukela imodeli kaLisa yethulwa ngo-1983. Kusukela lapho, inkampani yama-apula ibilokhu ishintsha njalo ukubukeka kwamagundane ayo. Akukhona nje kuphela ukuthi ukuthandwa kwedizayini yabantu kushintshile ngokuhamba kweminyaka, kodwa kanjalo nezindlela esisebenzisana ngazo nama-Mac ethu.
Mayelana nokuthuthukiswa kwamagundane kusukela ngo-2000, bambalwa abantu emhlabeni abanolwazi oluningiliziwe mayelana nayo yonke inqubo. omunye wabo Abraham Farag, owayengunjiniyela oholayo wobunjiniyela bokuklama umkhiqizo. Njengamanje ungumqondisi we-Sparkfactor Design, inkampani entsha yokuthuthukisa umkhiqizo.
Izibalo ze-Farag njengomunye wabanikazi belungelo lobunikazi igundane elinezinkinobho eziningi. Iseva Ihlelo le-Mac ube nethuba lokuxoxa noFarage mayelana nesikhathi sakhe e-Apple, umsebenzi awenza lapho, nezinkumbulo zakhe zokuthuthukisa amagundane anezinkinobho eziningi. Nakuba kunjalo Jony Ive Umklami odume kakhulu wakwa-Apple, inkampani ibihlale iqasha futhi isaqhubeka nokuqasha abantu abanekhono njengoFarag.
Ujoyine i-Apple ngo-March 1999. Wabelwa kumsebenzi wokuthuthukisa igundane ukuze athathele indawo "i-puck" eyimpikiswano (esithombeni ngezansi) eza ne-iMac yokuqala. Lokhu kwakha igundane lokuqala le-Apple "elingenazinkinobho". UFarag umkhumbula njengengozi ejabulisayo.
“Konke kuqale ngemodeli eyodwa ebesingenaso isikhathi esanele sayo. Sakhe ama-prototypes ayisithupha ukuze sibonise uSteve. Ayeseqedwe ngokuphelele, nawo wonke amajika okuhlukanisa izinkinobho. Imibala ibonisiwe nasesethulweni sokugcina.'
Ngomzuzu wokugcina, ithimba lokuklama linqume ukwengeza enye imodeli ebonisa ukubukeka komklamo owodwa onikeze isisekelo ku-"puck" edumile. Inkinga nje ukuthi imodeli yayingakaqedi. Ithimba alibanga naso isikhathi sokuphothula uhlaka lwamabhathini ukuze kucace ukuthi azobekwa kuphi.
“Bekubukeka sengathi kukhona okumpunga. Besifuna ukufaka lo msebenzi ebhokisini ukuze kungabikho muntu ozowubona,” kukhumbula uFarag. Nokho, ukusabela kukaJobs kwakungalindelekile. "USteve ubheke wonke umugqa wamamodeli futhi wagxila kulelo bhizinisi elingaqediwe."
“Kuhle lokhu. Asiwadingi amabhathini,” kusho uJobs. “Uqinisile, Steve. Azikho nhlobo izinkinobho,” kwengezwe othile engxoxweni. Waphela kanjalo umhlangano.
"Mina noBart Andre, uBrian Huppi, saphuma ekamelweni futhi sama ephasishi, lapho sabukana njengokuthi, 'Sizokwenza kanjani lokhu?' Ngenxa yemodeli engakaqedwa, kudingeke ukuthi sithole indlela yokwenza igundane ngaphandle kwezinkinobho.
Iqembu lonke ligcine liphumelele. I-Apple Pro Mouse (esithombeni ngezansi) yathengiswa ngo-2000. Akubanga nje kuphela igundane lokuqala elingenankinobho, futhi kwaba yigundane lokuqala le-Apple ukusebenzisa ama-LED ukuzwa ukunyakaza esikhundleni sebhola. “Ithimba le-R&D selisebenze kulokhu cishe iminyaka eyishumi,” kusho uFarag. "Ngokwazi kwami, sasiyinkampani yokuqala yabathengi ukuthengisa igundane elinjalo."
I-Apple Pro Mouse yayenza kahle, kodwa iqembu belizimisele ukuqhubekisela phambili lo mqondo. Ngokukhethekile, wayefuna ukusuka kugundane elingenazo izinkinobho ukuya egundaneni elinezinkinobho eziningi. Ukwenza igundane elinjalo nokulenza likhange ngesikhathi esifanayo kwakuwumsebenzi onzima. Kodwa ukukholisa uSteve Jobs kwakuwumsebenzi onzima nakakhulu.
“USteve ubekholelwa ngokuqinile ukuthi uma wakha i-UI eyanele, kufanele ukwazi ukwenza yonke into ngenkinobho eyodwa,” kusho uFarag. “Ngemva nje kuka-2000, bekunabantu abambalwa kwa-Apple abaphakamise ukuthi kufanele baqale ukusebenza ngegundane elinezinkinobho eziningi. Kodwa ukuncenga kukaSteve kwakufana nempi yokulwa. Angizange nje ngimbonise ama-prototypes, kodwa futhi ngamqinisekisa ngomthelela omuhle ku-AI. "
Iphrojekthi iphele ngokwehluleka esigabeni sokuqala. UFarag wayenomhlangano esitudiyo sokuklama, lapho uJony Ive naye ekhona, kanye nezinhloko zezokuthengisa nezobunjiniyela. "USteve akamenywanga emhlanganweni," kukhumbula uFarag. “Hhayi ukuthi ubengakwazi—ubengaya noma kuphi ekhempasini yakwa-Apple—besixoxa nje ngento ebesingakafuni ukumkhombisa yona. Sibheke ama-prototypes amagundane anezinkinobho eziningi futhi besisekude kakhulu ekuthuthukisweni - besinezingxenye ezisebenzayo kanye nokuhlolwa komsebenzisi. Konke kwakubekwe phezu kwetafula.'
Kuthe kusenjalo kwadlula uMisebenzi ngoba wayebuya kothile emhlanganweni. Wabona ama-prototypes phezu kwetafula, wema wasondela. "Nisebenza ngani nina?" ebuza lapho ebona ukuthi ubhekeni.
"Kwakuthulekile ekamelweni," kulandisa uFarag. “Akekho owayefuna ukuba yisiwula leso. Nokho, ekugcineni ngasho ukuthi konke lokhu kwakungenxa yesicelo somnyango wezokuthengisa nokuthi kwakuyigundane elinezinkinobho eziningi. Ngiphinde ngamtshela ukuthi konke kugunyazwe ngezinqubo zenkampani, ngakho saqala ukukulungisa.”
Imisebenzi yabheka uFarago, “Ngiyamaketha. Ngiyiqembu lezentengiso lomuntu oyedwa. Futhi ngeke siwenze lo mkhiqizo.” Wabe esephenduka wahamba.
"Ngakho uSteve wavele wabulala wonke umsebenzi. Wamqhumisa ngokuphelele,” kusho uFarag. "Awukwazanga ukuphuma ekamelweni, qhubeka nomsebenzi futhi uthemba ukuthi uzowugcina umsebenzi wakho." Kodwa-ke abantu baqala ukucabanga ngaye futhi baqala ukuzama ukukholisa uJobs.
“Ekuzivikeleni kukaSteve - wayefuna okungcono kakhulu ku-Apple kuphela. Empeleni, wayengafuni ukuqhamuka nomkhiqizo onikezwa yizo zonke ezinye izinkampani. Wayefuna ukugxumela phezulu emqhudelwaneni, konke ngobuchwepheshe bangaleso sikhathi,” kuchaza uFarag. “Ngicabanga ukuthi kuyena, ukunamathela kumqondo wegundane elinenkinobho eyodwa bekuyindlela yokwenza abaklami be-UI beze nento ehlanzeke ngokuphelele futhi elula. Okwashintsha umqondo wakhe ukuthi abasebenzisi babezimisele ukwamukela amamenyu wokuqukethwe namagundane anezinkinobho eziningi ezenza izenzo ezihlukile. Yize uSteve ezimisele ngokuvuma ngekhanda kulokhu, akakwazanga ukwamukela ukuthi igundane elisha lifana nawo wonke amanye.'
Ukuqanjwa okuyinhloko okusize ukuhambisa Imisebenzi kwakuyizinzwa ezikwazi ukuvuleka ezitholakala ngqo emzimbeni wegundane. Lokhu kuzuze umphumela wezinkinobho eziningi. Ngomqondo othile, lolu daba lukhumbuza izinkinobho ezibonakalayo ze-iPhone, ezishintshayo njengoba kudingeka ngaphakathi kohlelo lokusebenza ngalunye. Ngamagundane anezinkinobho eziningi, abasebenzisi abathuthukile bangamisa izenzo zezinkinobho ngazinye, kuyilapho abasebenzisi abavamile bangabuka igundane njengenkinobho eyodwa enkulu.
U-Abraham Farag washiya i-Apple ngo-2005. Eminyakeni eyalandela, ithimba lakhe lakha imodeli yamanje—i-Magic Mouse—eyathuthukisa kulokho uFarag ayesize kukho. Isibonelo, i-trackball kuMighty Mouse ivalwe wuthuli ngokuhamba kwesikhathi obekunzima ukulisusa. I-Magic Mouse ithathele indawo isilawuli sokuthinta okuthinta okuningi, okufana nezibonisi zamadivayisi we-iOS nama-trackpad we-MacBooks.
Ngangivame ukuba negundane elithi "puck" eline-G3 futhi kwakuyisihogo se-ergonomic esiphelele. Nalapho, uLogitech wenza igundane elinezinkinobho ezimbili ezisobala/eliluhlaza "le-Mac". (isibopho seMarathon neQuaka :))
Ngakho ngajwayela ngaso leso sikhathi ngeBondi Blue futhi ngisathanda ukuyisebenzisa ngezinye izikhathi. Kungifanela kahle.
futhi uke wazama ukudlala ngalelo gundane le-quaka? Noma ukugoqa umagazini noma ukuphinda uthinte? Nalapho wathumela i-Wacom :)
Ngineminwe emifushane - iyangifanela. I-Final Cut Pro, iDVD Studio Pro. Dlala i-QUAKE? Kimina, obegibele uNa Macy kusukela ngo-1987 (SE), ukumosha isikhathi ngempela...
Kuhle, ngibe nokuhleka :)
Yingakho ngithanda le seva. Ngiyacela, izihloko eziningi ezinjengalezi, nenza kahle kakhulu;) Unabantu abahlakaniphile ababhala kahle futhi abahehayo, futhi awukuboni lokho kulezi zinsuku :)
