This video was a real blast from the past. Makes one think how far things have come in the last 35 years. 64K of ram and BASIC pre-installed. Pretty lofty specs. The Apple II was the Model T Ford of the personal PC era. It was the first computer for the masses. You could have any color you like, as long as it was beige. Nearly everyone could afford one, it wasn't just for governments and large corporations. Once IBM saw the success of these in the early 80's they introduced their IBM compatible PC that same year. It's amazing to see how Steve looked when he was just 28 years old. This was just before the Macintosh debut and before the fall out with Scully that led to his firing from Apple.
