The Apple TAM: Unboxing after 10 years.


Recommended Posts

It's not every day that you can buy a brand new computer that's over 10 years old, but Alfred DiBlasi managed it: an eBay find of an original Twentieth Anniversary Macintosh, fresh in the box. In the 22-minute unboxing video (more than ample even by our standards) Al and his buddies remove the artifact from another era from its packaging and boot it for the first time. Zoom ahead to the 20:00 mark to watch the delightfully pretentious "Design Is Art" QuickTime intro movie (worth YouTubing on its own, if possible) and enjoy the Michael Hedges-esqe (possibly actually Michael Hedges) soundtrack. (more after the jump)

I think Engadget was being quite harsh on the video. That's why I hate myself for reading blogs. Because some blogs turn into serious issues, but they're nothing but a bunch of immature children when it comes to stories like this.

Anyways, I was really giddy when I watched it, and it was fantastic. All I can say is that Mr. DiBlasi is one lucky man. :D

man they would have shooted their pants if they knew what they were going to design down the road!

Yeah. Like the G4 lamp. :laugh:

(That is in my opinion one of the most original designs.)

A Lovely Machine for its day. Admittedly **WAY** to expensive though.

My father used one at work. Admittedly, he didn't have to pay for it :p .
