Folklore.org: Macintosh Stories: The Original Macintosh
Anecdotes about the development of Apple's original Macintosh computer, and the people who created it. (119 stories)
Since I hope that some of you can still register for Daniel Kottke's talk at school on November 6th (at 6 pm)... I thought it might be nice to let you read some of the inside stories of the Macintosh project!
Kottke was one of Apple engineers who worked with Steve Jobs and others... on the Apple 2 and on the Mac. He went to India with Steve Jobs (in the days before Apple) and even, I believe, was one of Apple's first employees!
See you later.... and..
Have a good weekend.

Welcome!
Welcome to this shared webspace for our Cross-Cultural Connections Class on Fridays!
Here's where each of you can contribute interesting videos and websites in English to share with the rest of the group as well as your partners at Yale and later at Smith.
(BTW: Other members of the group should naturally comment on the articles that are posted.... otherwise it's like "peeing in a fiddle!" for the poster.)
We'll add a link to the notes of our classes on the blog, with the expressions and any vocabulary we discover... it'll be a shared Google document so again each of us can edit and add to it. Of couse you can add links to other documents, to photos or videos as well as blurbs & critiques about the books you're reading.
After accepting the invitation each member of the class will be made an admin which of course gives you (almost) unlimited power! You should each get two invites... since I used both addresses... You only have to accept one!
See you soon
