The iMac

Apple begins shipping the iMac on August 15, 1998. Aesthetically, the iMac is different from other computers. It is made of translucent blue plastic and is egg-shaped around a 15 inch CRT. The iMac project is started one day after Steve Jobs returns as CEO in 1997 to help the beleaguered company return from obscurity. The new computer is a huge success and is the top selling model for most of 1998.
