Several things strike me going down this memory lane:
1) How modern and responsive the UI behavior is.
2) How many subtle improvements there have been (e.g. the old Mac menu behavior that I liked I find annoying). No command-A for select all in MacWrite.
3) How screen updates I used to think were instantaneous decidedly were not. (That said, I couldn't trigger the "ultra slow update" mode and watch menus drawing one line of pixels at a time).
4) Copyright notices for third party companies in "Apple" software (e.g. MacWrite is copyright "Encore Systems".
