Open Apple podcast #10 published



This month on the Open Apple podcast, Mike and Ken are joined by Rob
Kenyon, a two-time KansasFest attendee as well as a professional
programmer and 30-year veteran of the Apple II. We talk about how
great it is to be a part of the international community of Apple II
users, even if none of us can afford to buy Apple's founding contract
in a Sotheby's auction. Rob asks, did Steve Jobs purposely kill
HyperCard to turn the Mac into a more closed environment? We
congratulate Wade Clarke and Andrew Schultz on their showing in the
17th annual Interactive Fiction Competition. Plenty of original Apple
II computers are selling on eBay, with Mike and Rob discussing how to
distinguish an authentic classic from a modified one. We share our
wishes for the holiday season, including for an affordable accelerator
card and a CFFA3000, before signing off for the calendar year. Please
take our listener survey, and see you in 2012!

[Please note: technical difficulties have resulted in a low volume on
Ken's track, and a loud volume for Rob. Our apologies for the
inconvenience.]
