My Dad was buying me a computer. We went to a ComputerLand. In the showroom, I saw an Apple IIGS and a Macintosh SE. I chose to get the Apple, but that was a bad move. Later, I was taking an Information and Computer class and the instructor taught with Turbo Pascal, which ran on only IBM DOS and Mac OS.
Awesome video... nothing beats the startup chime... (well, maybe the recalibration noise from an Apple II Disk Drive). FWIW - The mouse, with its shorter cable, was meant to plug into the keyboard (on the right side as you had it setup). Saves a port in the back of the Mac for other ADB devices.
SuperCard was like a hyper-Hypercard (I used it a LONG time ago). The application consistency was deliberate. Apple published a set of tomes called "Inside Macintosh" that dictated how programs should behave (Menus, controls etc). The SE family was great and some ideas carried on into the "Classic" series of Macs.
Not just was it how they should work, but it also included the pointers in header files for the built into the toolbox rom routines for the standard interface items.
Great coverage! I'd have to find the UA-cam documentary, but I believe some of the first games by Cyan (aka, most known for Myst), were originally made in HyperCard.
I’ll never forget the summer when I was 10 years old and dad came home from police academy and choked my mom unconscious because he found a pair of men’s shoes in the closet 😂 my mom was hiding Birthday presents for the neighbor 🤣
Great overview! I am not sure somedays if we should not have just rolled back to 1901. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Nah, we'll be fine.🙄 Please keep the coverage coming. I hope to find a fully functioning one someday too.
Most of its "innovation" was done by Xerox Parc, long before the IIgs but anyway. Oggle boggle Joggle "SteveJobs god complex" Woggle. It irritates me that people perpetuate that Innovation started with the Macintosh. And It wasn't exactly "affordable" ether.
I love the background music Aaron.. perfectly cheesy and 80s. I think I might have to add a Mac to my collection. Great Video
that's pretty neat. bit more of a capable system than i may have given it credit for back in 90s

Between floppy port and printer port is probably external SCSI port. 02:16
That port does have the SCSI logo.
Very nice! I have one just like that, one with dual 800k floppies, and an SE/30 as well. I'd suggest you pick up a Floppy EMU to easily load software.

ADB is Apple Desktop Bus, not Apple Data Bus. Please, check your acronyms before shooting!!!
Most of its "innovation" was done better on the Apple IIgs... in color...
