    Christmas 1984: The Great Apple//c vs. PCjr Battle The Golden Age of Computer Sales surely must have been Christmas 1984. The Macintosh had just been released, Compaq and IBM offered powerful new CPUs, but the real action was a massive Christmas sales battle between the Apple//c and the IBM PCjr. I remember it well, I was working at ComputerLand in Los Angeles, and I was at the very center of the battle. The '84 christmas season would be an inversion of our usual high-end sales efforts. Professional computers from IBM and Compaq were too expensive for the seasonal retail market, and the Macintosh was too new and little software was available. ComputerLand was always intensely busy in December, handling christmas shoppers as well as large corporate customers who had to spend their budgets before December 31. Amidst all this flurry of year-end sales activity, Apple and IBM decided to fight it out in the low end consumer market. The Apple//c was a pretty darn good computer. It was inexpensive, with nice peripherals including a mouse, which had just made its debut on the Macintosh. The //c and the Mac casings were produced by Frog Design, so consumers got some of the cachet of the Mac even if they could only afford a //c. IBM's competition was a notorious flop, the PCjr. It had just been revamped, the "chiclet" keyboard was replaced with a better model, an inexpensive (but blurry) color monitor was standard. Microsoft produced a "sidecar" with extra memory and a Mouse, and bundled it with primitive apps like PCPaint and PFS:Write.

  • Retrocomputing As Preservation and Remix
    Retrocomputing as Preservation and Remix Yuri Takhteyev Quinn DuPont University of Toronto University of Toronto [email protected] [email protected] Abstract This paper looks at the world of retrocomputing, a constellation of largely non-professional practices involving old computing technology. Retrocomputing includes many activities that can be seen as constituting “preservation.” At the same time, it is often transformative, producing assemblages that “remix” fragments from the past with newer elements or joining together historic components that were never combined before. While such “remix” may seem to undermine preservation, it allows for fragments of computing history to be reintegrated into a living, ongoing practice, contributing to preservation in a broader sense. The seemingly unorganized nature of retrocomputing assemblages also provides space for alternative “situated knowledges” and histories of computing, which can sometimes be quite sophisticated. Recognizing such alternative epistemologies paves the way for alternative approaches to preservation. Keywords: retrocomputing, software preservation, remix Recovering #popsource In late March of 2012 Jordan Mechner received a shipment from his father, a box full of old floppies. Among them was a 3.5 inch disk labelled: “Prince of Persia / Source Code (Apple) / ©1989 Jordan Mechner (Original).” Mechner’s announcement of this find on his blog the next day took the world of nerds by storm.1 Prince of Persia, a game that Mechner single-handedly developed in the late 1980s, revolutionized computer games when it came out due to its surprisingly realistic representation of human movement. After being ported to DOS and Apple’s Mac OS in the early 1990s the game sold 2 million copies (Pham, 2001).

Käyttöjärjestelmissä Applen pahin kilpailija Microsoft on saavuttanut markkina-asemansa lisensoimalla käyttöjärjestelmänsä kenelle tahansa, Apple sen sijaan on sitonut käyttöjärjestelmänsä tiukasti itse valmistamiinsa tieto- koneisiin. Muun muassa tämän takia Applen markkinaosuus henkilökohtaisista tie- tokoneista on pysynyt matalana viimeiset 20 vuotta. Pienestä markkinaosuudestaan huolimatta sen tuotteet ovat aina herättäneet huomiota. Apple on käyttöjärjestel- missään esitellyt monia mullistavia teknologioita. Tämän esitelmän tarkoitus on esi- tellä Applen käyttöjärjestelmiä ja niitä varten kehitettyjen tietokoneiden kehitystä, historiaa ja teknisiä ominaisuuksia.

  • Compaq/Conner CP341 IDE/ATA Drive
    Compaq/Conner CP341 IDE/ATA Drive 1987 Compaq/Conner CP341 IDE/ATA Drive Emergence of IDE/ATA as widely used interface. Why it's important The IDE/ATA (Integrated Drive Electronics/AT Attachment) interface, now known as PATA (Parallel ATA) and SATA (Serial ATA), became the dominant hard disk drive (HDD) interface for IBM compatible PCs, initially because of its low cost and simplicity of integration. Today it is supported by most operating systems and hardware platforms and is incorporated into several other peripheral devices in addition to HDDs. As an intelligent drive interface universally adopted on personal computers, IDE/ATA was an enabler of the acceleration of disk drive capacity that began in the early 1990s. Discussion: The IDE interface development was initially conceived by Bill Frank of Western Digital (WD) in the fall of 1984 as a means of combining the disk controller and disk drive electronics, while maintaining compatibility with the AT and XT controller attachments to a PC without changes to the BIOS or drivers. WD floated that idea by its largest customers, IBM, DEC, and Compaq in the winter and spring of 1985. Compaq showed interest, so Bill Frank collaborated with Ralph Perry and Ken Bush of Compaq to develop the initial specification. WD formed a Tiger team in the spring of 1985 to build such a drive, using externally purchased 3.5” HDAs (Head Disk Assemblies), but initially just provided IDE to ST506 controller boards that Compaq hard-mounted to 10MB and 20MB 3.5” Miniscribe ST506 drives for their Portable II computer line, announced in February 1986 [3, 15, 20].
