Vintage Apple books and software
Mad props to my parents for keeping our basement an Apple museum! Aside from a pristine Apple //c (with monochrome monitor), vintage Apple ][ ,and Mac SE/30 (with a color monitor card) they kept most if not all of our Mac and Apple programming books from my youth. A few games even survived, although my addiction to Wasteland forced my dad to ship several of the more fun games to my French cousins. So I took some quick pics and made a vintage Apple books and software gallery. Enjoy the trip down memory lane– and if any of the authors of these books are around, let us know in the comments.
Some of my favorites:
- Chipwits – one of my favorite edutainment titles ever (and the original authors are trying to bring it back)
- Jeeves – before he hit the web he was your personal assistant
- Adventure Construction Set – taught me a lot about game design
- Using HyperCard – oh how I miss HyperCard
- The Elementary Apple – notable because of the binding, which was really useful when trying to type in programs
- The Halley Project - who didn't freak out when they heard their Apple start talking?
For some reason my copy of Racter is MIA.
