Steve Jobs Demos NeXTSTEP 3.0

Posted by michael on from the step-by-step-the-longest-march dept.

node 3 writes "Following the current trend of posting video from product demos long past, openstep.se has posted a 55MB video from 1992 of Steve Jobs demoing NeXTSTEP 3.0. They already have 4 mirrors hosting the file, but hopefully someone will set up a torrent (I would, but I don't have a place to post it). If you find the demo compelling and want to try out NeXTSTEP for yourself, you can always go here or here to get started."

    what's with all these old apple ads?

    If they only posted old Microsoft ads, it would basically be mass murder of geeks who died from internal hemorrhaging as a result of uncontrollable laughter.

    Anyone that saw the recently posted video of Ballmer touting Windows 1.0 knows what I'm talking about.

    Oh, and in 1992, I think my Amiga 3000 was competetive wrt to the NeXT. What's the big deal with all the jizz flying around for jobs around here?


    Maybe the fact that Jobs is still in business?

    Why the fsck do PeeCee people think we Apple fans worship Steve Jobs like a living deity? Of course, he's a guy who did a lot of interesting things, but he is definitely no god.

    Because there is only one true God, and His name is THE WOZ.

    I find some humor in the fact that your post is modded too low for you to even read.

    He says "Blammo" at about 10:45. I'm still looking for the "boom" though.

    Hmmm, lets see now. Jobs, cool liberal. Gates, nerdy liberal. Linux programmers, open source hippy liberals. Looks like right wing morons don't produce OSs.

    I'm a hard-right hyena who thinks George W. Bush is too liberal.

    And I LOVE my Mac!

    > I can't even get linux to recognize my Soundblaster Live sound card. I guess that card wasn't popular enough...

    You do realize you have to plug it in first don't you?

    Even Windows wont recognise an SB Live if you just wave it in front of the monitor.
