Hi,
I wish to show my son AppleVision - is there any video online on this?
I try to do a search and cannot find it.
For those who does not know about AppleVision - this is from Apple II
History:
--
An example of programming evolution on the Apple II was given during
Kansasfest in July of 1991. To fully appreciate this narrative, you
need to know a little about an old Integer BASIC program, APPLEVISION.
This was found on the DOS 3.2.1 System Master disk, and was a fun
little display that showed off the use of hi-res graphics. It began by
creating a simple line drawing of a room, with a picture on the wall
("HOME SWEET HOME") and a television set. On the screen of the TV
appeared a man who danced to the tune of "Turkey In The Straw", which
sounded on the built-in speaker. It ran repeatedly, until the user
interrupted the program.

Thanks!
