Episode 2: Today in the Garden: Taking down aliens, one laptop at a time.
For our second regular show, we break out the Icon Garden Time Machine and take a trip back to the bygone days of 1991, as we take a semi-exhaustive retrospective look at the history of the PowerBook line of Apple laptops, the groundbreaking line that arguably set trends in laptop design and function that still exist today. Also, we take the Pludge on updates for iOS, MacOS, and WatchOS, and briefly discuss the EKG functionality.
