Jobs left his imprint particularly on the aesthetics of the project. He insisted, for example, that all 50 computer chips be rearranged on a printed circuit board to straighten the solder traces. He worked with the Belgian-born commercial artist Jean-Michel Folon to prepare advertisements for Mac. But the pair found working on different continents too cumbersome, and Jobs retained other artists. Even the publicity brochures accompanying Mac reflect Jobs and contain one of his pet phrases: "Insanely great...
...Tales from the Secret Annex, a group of stories, fables, essays and reminiscences that she kept in a private journal.

"This was a proper use of our power," argued House Minority Leader Robert Michel of Illinois. "It is in our hemisphere. We are beginning to draw some lines here. How much of it do you take before you say, 'This is enough'?" Trent Lott of Mississippi agreed: "We don't want another pro-Castro Marxist government down there." Senate Democrats were far harsher. Paul Tsongas of Massachusetts called the invasion "Reagan...
