Introducing the Original Macintosh Video (1984)

This is video of the introduction of the original Macintosh in 1984. This sucker got Slashdotted, so pretty much all mirrors are being hammered right now. But yours truly managed to grab it, so here it is for the enjoyment of Applefritter members.

Note: this is a 22MB file, and if Slashdot finds out about this, expect it to go kaplooey rather quickly.

The Phoenix

The Phoenix is an interactive adventure game with an unusual twist. Based on the movies: 2001 and 2010, the story takes place in the year 2066. Your job is to map previously explored galaxies. While assigned to map the upper quadrants of Sector 17, you decide to explore the lower quadrants. It is here, that you find something the previous explorers had missed. You decide to enter the bruised, yet still intact, Discovery. A find like this would be equal to someone raising the Titanic today, which brings us to the object of the game:

Preserving Computing's Past Through Simulation

SIMH is the Computer History Simulation Project, an Internet-based collective aimed at preserving computing's heritage by simulating systems of historic interest. Started in 1993, the project now encompasses more than 20 systems, including the DEC PDP-1, PDP-4/7/9/15, PDP-8, PDP-11, and VAX; the Data General Nova and Eclipse; the HP 2100 series; the Interdata 16b and 32b series; the IBM 1401, 1620, 1130, and System/3; and many others. SIMH has provided a vehicle for running the earliest versions of Unix (including the first 32b port), for reconstructing lost software systems such as XVM/DOS, and extending the development life of "nearly current" systems like 2.11BSD for the PDP-11. SIMH is constantly being expanded to include new systems, additional capabilities for existing simulators, and greater interactivity with "real world" peripherals such as networks and graphics.

Atari 7800 20th Anniversary - Audio

Curt Vendel and Steve Golson take a look back at an incredible game console. The Atari 7800 was slated for original release in June of 1984 despite the lackluster videogaming market. But due to a change in management at Atari, the console was delayed by two years and wasn't introduced to market until 1986. This restrospective looks back at the development and evolution of this game console that, for 1984, was far ahead of its time.
