This is apparently from Apple’s shareholder meeting in 1984, just as the Mac was launched.
It’s a video, maybe a bit worn and torn by transfer from VHS. Just a video, maybe a bit garbled with repeated view, like a well-loved teddy bear.
But it has soul, and power, and spirit. This one will get you out of your seat, pumping the air, saying: today, I am going to be part of the magic. Today, we are Apple. We are all Apple now.
Cut me and I bleed six colors. Just not all at the same time anymore.

“Flashdance” based, but with a touch of “Fame.” Scrumptious.

Speaking as someone who may have actually been a stockholder at that time, I apologize and swear that they did not consult with me before making this horror.
