Six years ago today, Steve Jobs introduced a white, hard drive-based MP3 player that changed the music world. The iPod with it's Firewire interface and ease of use, became a huge hit with Mac users and eventually took a commanding lead in the portable audio device field.

The original iPod's capacity of only 1000 songs in your pocket seems laughable, even quaint by today's iPod standards.

Relive Steve's introduction of the popular music device and treat your own iPod to a fun day. Maybe take it to the zoo or out to a nice dinner. You only turn six once.
