The FIRST keynote of Steve Jobs 1984 - a Legend !



Audio: Breathtaking BreakCore Video to 1984


Very emotional for me this old videos, because i was 11 at this time and just got my first homecomputer. So i felt the hype of those new thingies, wich changed the computer landscape forever. It was the first own performed keynotes of Steve Jobs. The first film from 1983 shows the introduction from the sensational Apple-Ad "1984" and the power of the young Steve. In the second movie he is presenting a revolution for this time. Remember it was 1984 ! All what you see was fresh, futuristic and emotional for the audience. You will see the presentation of the first Mouse, 3,5" Disc and the software revolution by performing a GUI instead of a command line. Steve was very overhelmed by the standing ovations and reactions of the people. The genesis of Apple hype began with this. A classic - definitely !
