I found a promo CD from Apple from 1995 called “Stepping Into the Future: Robert’s Day with the Mac OS”. Of course I had to watch it!

It’s cheese-ball city, but if you can remember what computers were like in 1994 and 1995, you’ll realize exactly how far ahead Apple was. At this point in time, Microsoft’s best offering was Microsoft Bob. Shudder. What’s surprising is that a Google search for this Apple promo resulted in little info about it. Lest this gem pass into extinction, I used Snapz Pro to record it to a .mov file and put it up on YouTube for everyone to watch. Enjoy this piece of Apple History.
