What's wrong with the NeXT cube - in 1990 at sern the designer of the internet (Tim Berners-Lee) used it as the worlds first web server and used it to create the first web browser - worldwideweb
@OnkelAasmund Commodore is generally overlooked by everyone, but I bet Commodore was more influencial than IBM or Apple in getting the most people into personnal computing (planet-wise, not just USA-wise)... the Commodoreb VIC-20 reach 1 million sold before any apple computers so I heard.... and the commodore 64 we all know is the most sold computer mode o all time (what was it... 27 million? I don't remember the number).
Love of my life was the DEC timesharing computers. Worked on the Dec-10 at university, and later convinced the company I worked for to upgrade to a PDP-11/70.
While on a course in about 1976 in RSTS/e basic tried to think what to use multi-keyboard input for. That night in the hotel room designed a maze with numbers sprinkled around, and each player gathered them as 1 master player tried to catch/kill the other players. Long before pac-man. I should have patent it :)
This is geek-heaven, and a totally enjoyable tour. Those old punch-card steam-operated machines allways make me think "there's *gotta* be a way to make it play dopewars". Thanx for the upload!
I really enjoyed watching this, I collect old computers (Apple 2/2e/2gs/mac/Early HP) and hardware (test equipment etc) and can remember some of the 1970's/80's machines shown.
Can we have some more please? Also is there a higher definition download?

great, but he did not mention Amiga or C64 did he? Strange.

The next computer just goes to show, even when not in charge of Apple, Steve Jobs was still trying to overcharge people for his products.

There will be another museum tour some time in the next few months showing different exhibits.
I hope I have the money for an HD camera by then.
