      They really did pic the oldest computer possible. Although the floppy drive wasn't how it started. Imagine showing them cassettes.

        Can anyone tell what computer they show? That's an Apple ][ obviously but is it an original or a plus? Can't be an E or later because it lacked lower case. The plus was the last upper case only model.

        Eric, do you still have your old Apple ][+ ?

                  @Joyfano yup. I had an optical mouse in 1994. It was for my Sun workstation.
