23: Apples to Apples - a podcast by Thats Orange, LLC

The recent passing of Steve Jobs has left us to reflect on how he and his business ventures
have affected our lives and the rest of the world. For us retro gamers (at least our age), that
means looking back on the Apple ][, Apple //e, and that line of PCs that literally made "computer"
a household name.




Sean and Vinnk recall a time when "Apple" was still synonymous with "gaming" -- before the iPhone,
before the Macintosh, and (in some cases) before Nintendo. Also, a history of Apple's rise to dominance,
Steve Jobs' gig at Atari, and why the original iPod came with free copies of Breakout.
