The idea that @Apple would become a giant company would have seemed ludicrous to almost all analysts and journalists in 1980. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s interesting that this was three years after the company was saved from bankruptcy, but four years before the Mac and many years before the iPod, the iPhone, the MacBook Air, the iPad and the Apple Watch. — PolitiTweet.org

Tech IPOs deemed risky aren’t a new thing. On December 12, 1980, when @Apple went public, Massachusetts barred the sale of its shares on grounds that the company was too risky. The IPO still generated more capital than any IPO since Ford motor in 1956, according to Wikipedia. https://t.co/1GgA9Bs5Ay — PolitiTweet.org
