views on first experiences using an Apple // or Macintosh. Funny!

a Portable LIVE on stage, explains "Battery Paranoia" and design choices

Fairly Geeky, but interesting to some.

covering the Early to Middle Macintosh years.

Chapters Include:

� Apple introduces the popular PowerBook 100, 140, 170. A look into the 
complex engineering that went into these models... mockups, pencil 
drawings, comments on SONY building the PowerBook 100. Items like the 
introduction of the palm-rest, keyboards we use today are discussed. 
Employee Intro where new features are shown. Funny!

� Macs in Space. A quick clip of how the 1.4MB SuperDrive reacts in 
Space. Great stuff!

� Early Mac Animations. In 1988, Apple was eager to show off the 
graphics power of its 68020 line of computers. First up, a group of 
talented artists produced "Pencil Test," an animated short created 
entirely on a Macintosh II. Animations: Tempest, Her Majesty's Secret 
Serpent, Pigment Promenade, The Audition and Splash Dance are also 
shown. John Lasseter and Andrew Stanton of Pixar fame are listed in the

� Steve Wozniak along with David Cram discuss ESD, (electrostatic 
discharge), in a rather entertaining video about how static electricity 
can harm Service Parts. Good for teaching on this subject, one of the 
BEST. Not as boring as it sounds!

� Mac vs. PC. In a well done feature, Apple goes head to head with OS/2 
and early Windows. Many of the comparisons hold true today. It's quite 
an eye opening video, fun to watch.

� Macintoshes building Macintoshes. Apple's pride and joy, the 
$20-million, ultra modern Fremont facility where many early Macs were 
made. Shows the Mac SE and Mac II being built, tour of entire plant.

Apple Historical DVD 6 has 94 minutes of truly interesting video 
covering the Middle Macintosh years. Most all of this footage has never 
been seen by the general public. Also see photo and description below 
for a glimpse into this item.

Chapters Include:

� The Making of "1984". Rather amazing video covering the behind the 
scenes work of Apple's famous 1984 commercial. Lee Clow of Chiat/Day 
talks of his first visit with Burrell, Andy and Steve. Ridley Scott of 
Blade Runner and BBC fame is interviewed on how it was filmed, how they 
hired 150 skinheads, how they arrived at using an Athlete for the 
Sledgehammer toss, at... "Karl Marx". Other great info, they bought 
three Airplanes, then dismantled them for props, 747 engines are on the 
back walls, also notice the Mac Introduction was scheduled for January 
19th, not January 24th. Filmed at Sheperton Studios, London. Full Screen 
Versions of 1984. Exceedingly Interesting.

� The late Douglas Adams gives us a tour of the recently announced 
PowerBook Duo. He begins with his vision of a computing device he 
concieved for Hitchhiker Guide to the Galaxy, then walks us through how 
the new Duo has become this device. Well done by a famous Mac User.

� Several 3-4 minute clips on US West, Pizza Hut, FedEx and Allied 
Signal. Circa about 1988 when the GUI was still new inside large 
corporations. Early eMail, funny! Filmed with typical Apple flare.

� Historic agreement between Apple, IBM and Motorola (AIM) All the 
characters are there, Sculley, Spindler, Kalida & Taligent. Part PowerPC 
microprocessor plan. Part a plan to build a next generation 
microcomputer operating system. This new OS was to run on any hardware 
platform. It was also to be completely object-oriented from the ground 
up. The PowerPC portion lives on to this day.

� 1997 MacWorld Boston Keynote. A pivotal moment in Apple's history. 
Steve has returned, the existing Board of Directors has been let go, 
Steve makes peace with Microsoft, Bill Gates is tricked into appearing 
as George Orwell on a huge screen... to Boos and Hisses by the audience. 
Great stuff!

Stylish Interviews with new Board Members:

Ed Woolard, Gareth Chang, Larry Ellison, Jerry York, Bill Campbell

This is Steve Jobs at his very best, Think Different campaign begins, 
the Color Apple Logo is still alive. Fun to watch again and again.
