Not quite #MARCHintosh, but still Apple related. Footage of an Apple IIgs native application that combined computer control of a LaserDisc player and uses the Apple II Video Overlay Card has surfaced. It was certainly cool, but likely too expensive for schools to purchase. In only a year or two after TerraVision was released, CD equipped Macintosh and PCs would become commonplace and make this setup mostly obsolete.
@shango066 Recently toured a film production prop house. There are a TON of vintage computing goodies in here alongside the vintage TVs. They inexplicably have a shelf full of Dell Dimension 4600s. See if you spot the Commodore Plus/4!
This channel brings back memories of my days of a PC tech. Some interesting stuff shows up here..... from the dreaded Varta batteries of doom to someone's cherished digital audio workstation.
I plan on being at VCF East in Wall, NJ all day on Saturday 4/15 with Sunday being a "maybe". If anyone else plans on going, feel free to say hello. Hope to see some familiar faces there.

Ever wonder how those timelessly cool and risqúe NewTek Video Toaster transitions were made? Why with a video shoot With KiKi of course.

Well, it appears I can post something here now. Why? I Don't know, but the folks at YouTube said I should try it out.
*Proceeds to needlessly push all the buttons, slide all the sliders back and forth, turns the dials to 11, and toggle all the switches on and off*
Is this thing still on? Where are all the blinkenlights I was promised!
