> > What would it take to put the Mac on as many desktops as possible, without licensing, in a way that would convince DOS users to migrate toward the Mac?
> At the same time hardware engineer John Fitch, having just completed work on the IIgs, was worried by the lack of follow-up product for the Apple II. Fitch wanted to design a computer around a new chip, the Motorola 68030, which would be powerful enough for business and high end applications, but could also be offered to home users.
> Inspired by the Apple II “open” architecture mindset, Fitch proposed a modular approach.
> He designed a simple hardware “backbone” carrying basic operations and I/O on which the user could add a series of “book” modules, carrying hardware for running Apple II, Mac, UNIX and DOS software, plus other modules with disk drives or networking capabilities.
> Fitch named his concept “Jonathan” and asked Helmut Esslinger, Guido and the frogdesign team to help him design a physical model to present to management. Hesslinger was initially skeptical but later adopted and implemented the “books on a shelf” metaphor, understanding that, unlike conventional computers, Jonathan could look not only strikingly different but also more impressive as its performance increased.
