Video of the Orignal Mac Introduction Unearthed

The ubergeeks, and I say that with love by the way, over at
Slashdot have pointed to the only known footage of the first introduction of the Macintosh way back in 1984. This is when the world found out why 1984 wouldn't be like 1984, and a great chance to see his Steveness all gussied up in a bow tie and a blazer.

The footage comes from a cassette squirreled away by
Scott Knaster, iTunes expert and Mac enthusiast.

Be forewarned that the movie weighs in at 22 megs,
but in my opinion it is well worth the wait. At the moment the original site seems to have succumbed to the
'slashdotting,' but this link is working at the moment.
