I don't know, I didn't take the picture. But judging from the youthful appearance of Jobs, Geschke and Warnock, I'd say sometime in the mid-late 80s.

according to the adobe 20th anniversary page, it was taken "shortly after the launch of the laserwriter" which was march 3, 1985.

I used to use the first LaserWriter to create my Desktop Published documents. It sat outside of product manager's Bruce Blumbergs office.

Before the LaserWriter I was using a CompuGraphic phototypesetter connected to a Lisa.

Before the Lisa I used an Apple II connected to a Merganthaler phototypesetter.

I started attending the John Seybold seminars on publishing in the early 80s, while doing the competitive analysis for the Desktop Publishing concept in 1985. They were held Merv Griffin's Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills.
