  "textContent": "Following the release of his new book _Apple: The First 50 Years_ , tech columnist David Pogue is hosting an _Apple at 50: Five Decades of Thinking Different_ event at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California tonight.\n\n\nThe event will be live streamed on YouTube for free, starting at 7 p.m. Pacific Time.\n\n\"From the early garage days of the 1970s, to the heyday of the Macintosh in the 1980s, to Apple's transformation in the 2000s with the iPhone, the program will explore how Apple repeatedly redefined itself while holding fast to a distinctive vision,\" the Computer History Museum said, in the YouTube stream's description.\n\nThe event will feature speakers from across multiple Apple eras, including:\n\n\n\n  * **John Sculley** : Apple's CEO from 1983 to 1993\n\n\n  * **Chris Espinosa** : Apple's longest-serving employee\n\n\n  * **Avie Tevanian** : Apple's former Chief Software Technology Officer\n\n\n  * **Jon Rubinstein** : Apple's former SVP of Hardware Engineering (appearing by video)\n\nPogue is a _CBS Sunday Morning_ correspondent, and he spent many years writing about Apple and technology for _The New York Times_ and _Macworld_.\n\nIn a social media post, Pogue said the event will also feature Ronald Wayne, the lesser-known third co-founder of Apple alongside Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak. It is unclear if Wayne will be attending the event in person or if he will speak.\n\nWayne sold his 10% share of Apple back to Jobs and Wozniak just 12 days after the company was established in 1976, to avoid personal financial risk. His share of the company would be worth hundreds of billions of dollars today.\n\nThe live stream is below.\n\n\n\n\nPogue said there will be seven key Apple figures participating in the event, so there should be two others beyond the names listed above. Perhaps it is a surprise.\n\nThe Computer History Museum has an Apple at 50 page with a timeline of the company's history, old photos, interviews, rare prototypes, and more.\n\nPogue's book _Apple: The First 50 Years_ is available in hardcover and digital formats.\n\nIn time for Apple's 50th anniversary on April 1, 2026, the 608-page book explores the first five decades of the company's history. Pogue interviewed 150 key people who shaped Apple into what it is today, including Wozniak, Sculley, former design chief Jony Ive, and others.\n\nThe book provides \"new facts that correct the record\":\n\n> In time for Apple's 50th anniversary, CBS Sunday Morning correspondent David Pogue tells the iconic company's entire life story: how it was born, nearly died, was born again under Steve Jobs, and became, under CEO Tim Cook, the most valuable company in the world. The book features full-color photos, new facts that correct the record and illuminate its subversive culture, and fresh interviews with the legendary figures who shaped Apple into what it is today.\n\nNote: MacRumors is an affiliate partner with Amazon.
