Commemorating Jobs' 68th birthday, Steve Jobs Archive shared an old photo from 1984: jobs bent over to observe the use of Macintosh

CTOnews.com, Feb. 25-Jobs' family and friends jointly founded Steve Jobs Archive in September last year, which collects the tech mogul's archives. The website commemorates Jobs' 68th birthday by posting a picture of Jobs bending over outside a shop window in New Orleans in 1984 to carefully observe the use of Macintosh by office women.

This photo was taken 39 years ago, in February 1984, a month after the original Macintosh went on sale. Leslie Berlin, the founding executive director of Steve Jobs Archive, shared the story behind the photo.

CTOnews.com is translated as follows:

Steve's friend Jean Pigozzi calls himself a "serious amateur photographer".

Although Jean didn't do any technical work, Steve invited him to attend a software conference in New Orleans.

One night after the event, as they were walking down O'Keefe Avenue Avenue, thinking about what to eat tonight, Jobs stopped at the window and watched the people inside use Macintosh to work.

Jobs watched carefully and wanted to know how users use Mac. Steve was so curious and focused that his whole body bent down.
