Macinography #1: System 7

Join us for the second episode of Macinography, where we look at influential hardware, software, and ephemera of Apple and Apple-related subjects.

For most of the nineties, this was what it meant to be a Mac. What was the goal of System 7 and how did it change our idea of what a Mac was? Listen to find out.
