  • Summary

  • Episode Notes

    In this episode, Libba chats with computer historian David Greelish about the rise and impact of the personal computer, vintage computer collecting, the history behind computing technology, and thoughts on the future of communication technology. It's a fascinating discussion, and we look forward to David joining us to present on the history of computers during our May 22nd Homeschool Day: The Information Age.

    David Greelish is the author of Classic Computing, which includes all ten issues of the groundbreaking computer history “zine” (newsletter/magazine) Historically Brewed & Classic Computing in one professionally bound volume. Classic Computing also includes the personal background story of David Greelish, Publisher and Editor (writer for many of the stories, too.)

    David has also written numerous articles including those for Time Magazine and Forbes, and he has produced a great documentary titled Before Macintosh: The Apple Lisa which explores the history, technology, people, stories and industry influence of this lesser-known personal computer.
