You were exactly a year and a day away from the Macs birthday.  The Macintosh 
128k was introduced in January 24th 1984.

Too bad I was too young and I missed the intro, as Steve Jobs took the Mac out 
of the bag he turned it on and introduced it, then the Mac cleverly started to 
talk, this is what it said:

"Hello, I am Macintosh.  It sure is great to get out of that bag.  As 
unaccustomed as I am to public speaking, I'd like to share with you a maxim I 
thought of the first time I met an IBM mainframe: Never trust a computer you 
can't lift.

Obviously I can talk, but right now I'd like sit back and
listen. So it is with considerable pride that I introduce a man
who's been like a father to me, Steve Jobs."

I take my hat off to the Mac, thank you Steve Jobs
