Well, that button probably dates from the late 80s or early 90s, when Apple was comparing Macs to branded IBM PS/2s and such that were sold to schools and enterprises.

And they weren't wrong, at the time. Those PS/2s were fuckin' expensive.

My Apple IIC was the stuff back in the 80s.

It was also the last Apple product I owned.

The interaction between Jobs (Michael Fassbender) and Woz (Seth Rogen) pretty much sums up the Apple ][ era.
