Wow, hard to believe that speech was written in 1995. Adam on a card ... I
wonder why nobody considered doing a software emulator -- apparently there
exist software emulators for other 8 bit platforms. It's also interesting
that he considered the EPROM fade to be a real issue, although it appears
that there hadn't been any reported cases of it. I wonder how long those
EPROMs really do hold their data....
The media obsolescence issue is also really important -- what would I do if
I wanted to get access to one of my High School papers, originally written
using AppleWriter. It'd be tough to retrieve the file -- I'd have to find
an Apple with a modem and Xmodem it up to some Unix system I suspect.
