" These pictures were taken in 1985 by celebrity photographer Deborah Feingold shortly after the release of Windows 1.0. There's no evidence that they ever appeared in Teen Beat. "

these pics arnt from Teen Beat or 1983 ... yay!

For you curious people:

Found yet another source to prove the date is wrong. The pics are dated 1985 which makes more sense than 1983 since there's a Macintosh Classic behind Gates in the first pic.

Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Macintosh

The Macintosh was introduced on January 22, 1984, with a famous Super Bowl commercial featuring a female athlete throwing a hammer through a giant TV screen image of a dictator ("Big Brother", alluding to the tyrant character of the novel Nineteen Eighty-Four, and to the dominant computer maker at that time: IBM, colloquially known in the industry as "Big Blue"). The Mac went on sale two days later for a price of $2,495.00.

    • Regarding the AI photo, I LOVE AI in that regard, you ask it what you want and it gives you a lovey photo in under a minute, that would taken me an hour to make in photoshop and it wouldn't have looked nearly as good. 2 nights ago I spent a couple hours collaborating with AI.  I did not say write me an article. I would write one or 2  paragraphs, then I would ask it to clean it up so it read better but still keeps the information I was trying to convey.  Rinse repeat.
