Jef Raskin, the Visionary Behind the Mac (2013)

Jef Raskin founded Apple's Macintosh project and championed the graphical user interface and all-in-one appliance design that made the Mac accessible to everyday users, though he left the project in 1981 when Steve Jobs took over. In this 2013 interview, Raskin clarifies misconceptions about his vision, asserting he designed the Mac to be graphical from the start and defends his focus on simplicity of use, while acknowledging that modern Macs have become unnecessarily complex through incremental development.
