Shawn Teller, you've reinstated copyedits that I had previously reverted, so I'll explain my first revert:

the first Macintosh was not first released in 1984; it was only released once, in 1984
initially being successful at first is clunkier than initial success, and not grammatically correct
brought Steve Jobs back to Apple to invigorate it (bolded insertion) — this speculates on the reasons Jobs was brought to Apple, in a way that is not present in sources (and whose motivations are we describing? Amelio's?)
Please do not reinstate disputed edits like this; see WP:BRD. DFlhb (talk) 16:34, 4 April 2023 (UTC)

Xerox 8010 Star workstation (1981) should be credited as the first WYSIWIG personnal computer, or even earlier in 1974 the combination made à Xerox bewteen Bravo text editor, Alto personnal computer and laser printer.
-> Bigelow in IEEE juanary/march 2020 [6]
Jobs is known to have visited the Xerox PARC where he discovered many things that will be implemented to Apple products. I don't remember my source for that, sorry.
