That was what was written up in BYTE in the issue released in 1983. There was an issue released at the time of the first Mac release, containing nothing but stories about the Mac. Over 150 pages of coverage, if memory served. Nothing in the issue but Mac (other than ongoing columns). Hardware articles, on things like the first USB (which was the only I/O available for the original Mac), the Integrated Woz Machine, handling the disk I/O, articles on the software, and articles on the making of the machine - who, how, and when.
Those articles may have been inaccurate, but that's what I am quoting from. I didn't keep a copy of the magazine, I didn't think I would be needing to quote verbatim from after 30 years. Maybe a library, or some used copy somewhere for sale? <Shrug>
