When the MacBook Apple logo was upside down

20 años del iBook, una keynote que demostró que Steve Jobs era un auténtico showman

Y todo a pesar de que en un principio Apple informó, de forma interna, de que los usuarios se confundirían a la hora de abrir su dispositivo ya que de forma inconsciente lo harían por el lado equivocado al creer que la manzana de Apple debería estar en su posición natural al abrirlo y no de forma invertida.

Sin embargo, a pesar de todo, Steve cedió ante la presión de sus equipo de diseño y, seguramente también influenciado por el equipo de marketing (no hay duda de que luce mucho más una manzana al derecho que al revés cuando el resto de usuarios mira al portátil) y decidió cambiar el logo de Apple de dirección: a partir del año 2001, todos los portátiles de Apple tienen la manzana en su posición natural al estar abiertos, lo que supone que está invertida cuando sus dueños lo abren.

Es posible que esto pueda acarrear a los usuarios algún problema las primeras veces que querían abrir un MacBook, sin embargo es algo a lo que te acostumbras a los pocos días, y nadie duda de que la manzana de Apple queda mejor al derecho que invertida cuando trabajas con tu Mac.

The Apple Bite logo is one of the most recognizable logos in the world and we are very used to seeing it shining on the back of your devices. However there was a crucial moment in history when the company decided to change its address , with the iPhone, the iMac or the iPad there is no discussion about the orientation of the apple, however on Apple laptops the logo has not always been as it is now.

The Apple apple logo has been on Apple laptops since the time of the PowerBook launched in the early 1990s, and was already on the cover of the device. However, the position in which it was oriented was a dilemma, whatever position you choose, the apple will be in one position when the laptop is closed, and in the opposite position when you open it .

At first Steve Jobs was clear, even though a laptop is going to be used most of the time open, Jobs wanted the Apple user to have the best possible experience , so the apple logo should be oriented to the user before he starts working with his computer. But often when Apple became popular the team found that this generated a problem.

For a decade, first with the Powerbook and later with the first iBook, already designed and presented by Steve Jobs, the Apple logo was oriented towards the user and in an inverted position when you opened the laptop to work. This trend changed in 2001 with the launch of the Powerbook G4 and the change at first was not very well received by the founder, however the design team managed to convince him.
