Now that the Mac has turned 21 years old, it’s about time the home video of its birth is finally released on the internet.
“Kottke”:http://www.kottke.org/05/01/jobs-macintosh-video has the best list of mirrors, including some torrents. I got 300k/sec off of the torrents, so I recommend using those if you can. Also you won’t suck up some site’s bandwidth that way.
The video is great quality considering its age, and it’s a ton of fun to watch this thing be unveiled. I don’t want to spoil the ending, but it’s really cool to see the whole auditorium on their feet cheering for a simple little computer on the stage. I also enjoy the young Steve, looking like he just introduced pictures of his new baby.

1That’s awesome. I’ve read a transcript of that introduction before, but it’s great to actually see the footage.
