the mac may have been designed around graphics, but not putting a graphics        coprocessor in it was AWFULLY stupid.

i agree that one of the strong points of a mac is that it requires alomst
  no training to begin to be productive.  I have personally introduced
  secretaries and other types of usually-noncomputer jobs to word-processing
  and office work on the macintosh.  in less than an hour most of them were
  able to create, print and save documents, and do simple tasks that are
  much of getting something done.  later we worked on literacy in the true
 sense.
