'Welcome to Macintosh' DVD available for pre-order
Welcome to Macintosh, a documentary film by Rob Baca and Josh Rizzo that covers the history and community behind the Mac phenomenon, is available for pre-order on DVD.
The DVD costs $19.84. Cute.
Billed as "the first documentary of its kind," the film explores the early years at Apple through interviews with observers and former employees of the company, such as Guy Kawasaki, Andy Hertzfeld, Ron Wayne, John Moltz, and Leander Kahney.
The DVD has three additional hours of footage beyond the 83-minute movie. Quantities, according to the official site, are limited, and orders will ship mid-December.
Thanks Tony W.!

I thought this was MacHeads, so there are two documentary's to look forward too. Great! But I've been waiting for MacHeads for ages and there's no contacting them.

Uh...the "early years" at Apple weren't about the Macintosh. They were about the Apple, the Apple II and its tribe, the Apple III, and the Lisa...lotsa years at Apple before the Mac.
