Love this!!! Anyone who loves old Macs should listen to this, it’s great.
I’m glad this series exists. Learned about so many macs that I never knew existed or forgot about. Very fun. Extra star for the cool intro music alone!
I really enjoyed the series. It is a fun stroll down memory lane.
What a great series. Really interesting and in short bite sized portions. Even more of a surprise is that the companion YouTube series is different in approach, and equally good! Well worth the time investment and hope Jason makes more of these in the future.
This is a great series.
