Me too. I was at the Mac introduction 1/17/84... and held out for all of 2 weeks afterward.

At the time, my largest client was Microsoft and they had shown me one of their development Macs in December '83. They had dedicated 1/2 their software development resources to Mac apps. They didn't think anyone in their right minds would want a PC after seeing a Mac.

They overestimated their audience.
