[comp.sys.mac] What I found on the inside of SE's cover....

buzz@phoenix.Princeton.EDU (Mahboud Zabetian) (03/12/88)

I opened up my SE to fix the funny buzzing noise the hard disk was making(more
on that later) and I noticed the signatures on the inside of the cover.  Now, I
used to have a Mac 128, and those signatures came as no surprise, but what
surprised me was that among the signatures I saw the familiar signature of
STEVE JOBS!!  I thought he was fired before the SE was designed.  Or do they
still let his signature be there since he started the whole Mac dynasty?

Anyone at Apple want to help with this bit of trivia?

The case for the Mac SE was designed from the Mac Plus case, which in turn was
designed from the original 128K Mac case.  Steve happened to have signed his
name in place that has remained unchanged.
