Found Footage: We Are Apple, a 1984 Musical Montage

sorry, i still don't do windows!
never run an unchanging system!

I like the guy using his mouse with two hands.

I remember the 80s fondly as the time I grew up, went to summer camp, fell in love. It was a cool time to live in, as you were living in it. In my, mind, the 80s will always be golden. But when I see stuff like this, I just wanna vomit.

This wouldn't have changed my view about Apple. Back then everybody was doing cheesy stuff like this.

I think we all agree that this is not Apples finest moment (but then again, in 1984 this might have been pretty cool)
Anyways, I can confirm that the video is from the 1984 Apple shareholder's meeting, the Macintosh day...
If anyone is interested in the entire 90 minutes footage from the event, you can watch it here:

Well, I for one would like to thank the kids from Fame for that.

I think I preferred the Orwellian 1984.

For everyone unlucky enough to have missed the 80's, basically watch that a few times and then put on a poor quality vhs tape of The A Team - no dvd's now! Cassette tape copies from FM radio of early Madonna and Prince on your massive Walkman and you have the iPod experience in glorious analogue with 1 hour of hiss ridden music on tap! Yeah, those were the days alright. Though I should seriously have stayed away from BASIC in hindsight...

Hmmm ... maybe a trademark dispute wasn't the reason Apple Corps tried to stop Apple Computer from getting involved in music.

Phillip: Any chance you could post that extended version somewhere? I'd be very interesting in listening to it.

Wow! But why did they put the footswitch on the desk?
