Hi and welcome to TS!  welcome.gif  One of our members, Spartacus, has a great site--The Apple Museum, which you can find here.

Here's his link for information about "copyright/terms of use" for his site.

A couple of IMacs, an iPad, a bunch of iPhones...two of which don’t live here, but I still pay for. Oh yeah, wife, daughters, and yes—a grandson!

Hey Barbara.

Just send me an email and we can talk about it: foljanty@theapplemuseum.com

What I can already tell you is, that I don't have a PowerPoint presentation. But I have the information.

welcome.gif to TeeEss, BsrbaraJ.

Happy to have Member Nr. 1517 arrive at our threshold.

Spartacus is our Font of Historical Wisdom, official, unofficial, whatever. biggrin.gif  He knows what he talks about.

If you haven't ever seen Robert X Cringley's work (on PBS and elsewhere) I really recommed this.
His "Nerd" miniseries It's possible you could find a copy at your public library. There's an accompanying book, too.

I was personally acquainted with some of the late-teen/early 20-something players in the 1970s and so I know Cringley's interpretation(s) about those "early days" are sound and responsible .

Come back to TeeEss often.
