The lies started at 1:32 when the narrator called the Apple II inexpensive. I hated this machine since 2nd grade. I grew up with a TI99/4A and a Commodore 64. Machines with real color graphics, smooth moving sprites, speech synthesis, and sounds beyond the "bleep, bloop, tick" of the Apple II. The most overrated piece of garbage from the 80s to be sure. Everyone else was pushing the technology further and lowering prices. Not Apple. They held onto this obsolete box of crap for years until the Macintosh, then got humiliated again when the Amiga came out with COLOR, preemptive multitasking, and a 2 button mouse.

Back when Apple really was really cool. Not that Apple is terrible now. But back in the 80’s (as well as the late-90’s/early 2000’s), if you were privileged to own/operate an Apple/Macintosh computer, touched a piece of nostalgia. I was fortunate to learn both Apple (school) and IBM-PC (I owned a Tandy 1000 HX) at a young age.

The Apple //e is my favorite gaming computer ever. I did grow up in the '80s, but we didn't have a computer till the mid-'90s when we got a PC. Didn't even have the Commodore 64 back then, like everyone else did. But I do have very fond memories of playing the Apple IIe quite a bit at summer daycamp as a kid. Karateka, Moon Patrol, Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego, Mario Bros., Frogger, Conan, Montezuma's Revenge. These games and others loom large in my memory (I didn't play The Oregon Trail until adulthood). And in school, I remember playing around with Logo. Though I have the AppleWin emulator on my laptop, I do hope to get a real Apple IIe someday. Expensive, but worth it, I think. Thanks, Woz.

I love music. I love soundtracks. I love game soundtracks. Out of all of the pieces of music I've ever listened, the guild wars factions theme is the most nostalgic one. It's an overpowering stimulus to the web of synapses that encompass everything that was going on with and around this game when I started playing Guild Wars Factions when it came out in 2006. I remember the long days at the hospital prior to starting the game. I remember the summer was hot. I remember the exact area of the house that was my childhood home where I played the game. I remember the feeling of obsession, my first real taste of addictive behavior. I remember the disinterest associated with everything else, the sense of not belonging in social circles (I did have friends despite of this). I remember some of my experiences at elementary school through this piece. I remember the bothered mother who told her son to do something else for change because he had been sitting for six hours staring at a screen non-stop. Yeah...

Apple // Enhanced with ProDOS -- Apple III SOS operating system - without overheating cast aluminum case
@bjbell5211 ай бұрын
Apple DOS came out before ProDOS. It was written by Shepardson Microsystems (mostly Paul Laughton). Originally he was to write a BASIC language but needed a way to get the code from the non-Apple computer he used to write it into the Apple. So he wrote Apple DOS first and Apple add enhancements to it. Apple decided to go with Microsoft Basic, so they didn't write a BASIC language for Apple but instead wrote Atari Basic for the 800/400.

Skipping lower-case support on the Apple I and Apple II was a cost-saving measure, from a time when home computers frankly didn't have a lot of practical uses yet. There were ways around this limitation on the Apple II in the late 1970s (hacks, third party 80-column cards, etc.) but it only really became "standard" with the Apple IIe. The reason it took so long was basically because Apple hadn't really planned to continue the Apple II line beyond the II+. They were trying to launch the Apple III as its successor. When that didn't pan out, they came back to the Apple II platform with the IIe and IIc.
