Web review

This weekend I want to point out an interesting video from an italian guy that was able to connect an C64 (from 1982!) to the Internet. He used an experimental hardware interface that adds a standard ethernet connection to the Commodore and a special graphic operating system (with window manager), Contiki.

He loads Google.it page in the C=64 web browser and… it works!

Today we start a new weekly appointment, a nice video from YouTube (or somewhere else) to relax and start enjoing the week end.

The choice of this first (very short) video is related to the Macintosh’ 25th birthday that Apple celebrates this year (since 1984): here’s a fast compilation of all the startup sounds that were included in Macintosh machines, from the first Mac 128k to today.
