40 Years Ago, Drexel Made Computer — and Apple — History

Posted by jpluimers on 2024/10/09

Not having lived in the USA, I was unaware this was major step there: [Wayback/Archive] 40 Years Ago, Drexel Made Computer — and Apple — History.

A big part of the importance – giving them away for free – fails in the above link title, but the content makes up for that very well.

Boy, this was so different from my education era (:

I you want to see how this worked 40 years ago, be sure to read [Wayback/Archive] In Pictures: When Drexel gave every student a Mac in 1980s – Interesting Engineering.

This great VCF East recapitulation pointed me to the Drexel Macintosh: [Wayback/Archive] VCF East 2024 – A Whirlwind of Retro Shenanigans! – YouTube.

There is even this beautiful video: [Wayback/Archive] 1984 ‘Drexel’ Macintosh 128K- Restoration and History! – YouTube

Query: [Wayback/Archive] drexel mac – Sök på Google
