If Apple decided not to celebrate this event, one should not forget that the company released its first computer model 25 years ago. Yes, the Mac is 25 years-old, still young for a human being, but for a computer brand it could be considered as the beginning of wisdom.
So, let's wish that Apple will continue to release hardware and software which contribute to make IT different and accessible to most users, making our perception of IT "different", turning a tool into a toy to help us to be efficient and creative.
