About This Podcast

The Apple II computer helped launch the personal computer revolution of the late 1970s and 1980s. Every 1-2 weeks, Apple II Historian Steven Weyhrich takes five minutes to explores stories from the history of the Apple II: Its design, the people behind it, the software that made it famous, and the innovations that shaped early personal computing. Episodes draw on research from the apple2history.org web site, and his book Sophistication and Simplicity: The Life and Times of the Apple II Computer.
