Apple’s 20th Anniversary Unboxing

Today we have something a little different in store. In celebration of Apple’s 20th anniversary, some old codger has cracked out a brand new Apple desktop known as the ‘TAM’ – which was first produced 20 years ago.

The rather lengthy video below shows said codger unpacking a rather strange looking dummy from a box, followed closely by the TAM personal computer, fresh in all its boxed glory. Its actually quite interesting to see that some of Apple’s design trends set 20 years ago are still ever present today, for example the flat screen monitor with (part of ?) the computer built into it (which I didn’t even know existed in the 80’s) and the keyboard with the mouse trackpad built in, very similar in design to.. lets see.. oh thats right – every laptop in the world!

Fantastic to see such a classic product in action, and awsome to see some of the earliest Apple design elements – even the packaging of a 20 year old machine was impressive… if only Steve Jobs had decided to pack up shop and buy west sussex property in England then maybe the prices for Today’s products would be half decent!
