Apple VHS Archive: Patents at Apple

The excellent Apple VHS Archive YouTube channel continues to unearth analog video gold. The latest update is a nine and a half minute company internal video featuring, among others, a beardless(!) Woz – by then an “Apple Fellow” – talking up the benefits and general warm fuzzies of hardware and software patents.

Lon Seidman reviews the Apple IIGS

Lon Seidman, occasional sysop of the Matrix Returns BBS, recently reviewed the Apple IIGS on his popular YouTube channel. The 33-minute video covers such peripherals as the CFFA3000 and software including GS/OS, HyperStudio, Arkanoid II, and California Games.

Unfortunately, the Apple IIGS nearly went up in flames during the shoot, resulting in this "yule log".

(Full disclosure: The author of this post backs Lon Seidman on Patreon.)
