We're back for the final day of the #AppleFest anniversary! Mike Harvey, creator of Nibble magazine, spoke 40 years ago today about the work, joys, and pitfalls that come with starting a business. He began with a story not about computers, but about cows: https://t.co/0aRRuqdC8A
This talk, 40 years old today, is Powersharing program #100. "It's Saturday, and we came out here because we really wanted to see the show. And we really wanted to do what we could to help. And so we don't really represent Apple today; we represent Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak."
After @stevewoz's presentation, 40 years ago today, Steve Jobs took the stage, mainly to hold a Q&A session and answer some of the audience's questions about computers in education, the future of the Apple II, and so on.
Today in our AppleFest 1982 anniversary discussion, we'd like to share some clips from the keynote speakers: Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak! First up, @stevewoz discusses his history with mini- and microcomputers and interactions with the Homebrew Computer Club.
Today marks 40 years since the start of AppleFest 1982 in Boston! In addition to making its public debut there, Powersharing later selected two presentations from this event to add to the Series. We'll be posting some clips over the next few days, so stay tuned!
Check out this article about a lost recording of Steve Jobs's 1988 Boston NeXT Computer introduction that I helped to restore for The Powersharing Series, a fantastic collection of recordings of the early personal computer pioneers of the '80s and '90s. https://t.co/tcJrp5vgjN
