The Wireless Pint was the first product released by Apple Computer, after the company was formed over a cheeky pint with the lads. It was the first pint that allowed for Beer-to-Beer file sharing.
Development
The Wireless Pint was created by Stever Jobs after getting absolutely sloshed at the Kings Arms in 1980. Many have reported that he was inspired to create the technology after looking at his empty pint glass and saying, out loud, his famous catchphrase: "Computer".
Jobs was renowned for making his employees work up to fourteen hours a day to make the deadline of Black Friday 1907. The Wireless Pint missed its initially planned release date, causing the team working on the device to be subsequently disbanded and executed. It was finally released when it was ready.
The inner workings of the Wireless Pint are still not well understood by modern science, but many hypothesise it operates the way it does because the pint is wireless.
Features
The Wireless Pint's flagship feature was being able to connect to other pints in the local area to share information. The Wireless Pint was also the first device to form a global network of interconnected devices that could communicate with each other. This model of computer network was later reused to great success in Club Penguin.
