VIDEO: Kids React to Old Apple Computer!


A new video that shows kids reacting to old technology is stirring up memories of clunky monitors and large floppy disks.

The Apple II, which was released in 1977, was the pioneer of desktop computers. The 8-bit Apple computer featured a green and black screen and a floppy disk drive for 3.5-by-5-inch media.

Relative to today's technology, describing the Apple II as simply obsolete or primitive does not do the situation justice. When the computers first hit the marketplace, Apple sold them for about $1,300. Adjusted for inflation, that translates to $5,000 in today's world, and that amount of money would buy you a device with about 32 gigabytes of RAM, or over 67 million times what the Apple II first offered.
