History
The Graphing Calculator 1.0 software was bundled with all Power Macintosh computers since its introduction in 1994. Having shipped on more than 20 million machines, it is the most familiar version of the program.[according to whom?] This version of Graphing Calculator was secretly developed at Apple by Ron Avitzur, a contractor who felt obligated to complete the project, and their friend and colleague Greg Robbins.[1][self-published source] In 2005, This American Life featured Avitzur's story in episode 284, "Should I Stay or Should I Go?".[2]
