The Apple IIGS

The Apple II in 1977 was the computer that made Apple into a successful company, and in 1986, the upgraded 16-bit Apple IIGS hit store shelves. Even though it was an impressive computer, it was overshadowed by the new Macintosh line. Correction: Ninjaforce contributed graphics and sounds for Wolfenstein 3D on the Apple IIGS, but not the coding. Hosted by Corbin Davenport, guest starring Lucas Bastos. Outro song is "Apple II Forever" by Apple.
