The PC I bought for the first time, Apple IIC and my friend H
"One" and the GIGA school concept I bought
Anyone, if you are a computer user, you should have the first computer you bought.In my case, it was an 8 -bit machine called "Apple IIC" released by Apple Computer (currently Apple) in 1984.Before and after joining ASCII and assigned to "Monthly ASCII", I bought this US computer.
The editor of a weekly Shonen Manga Magazine, H, the editor of a weekly Shonen Manga, invited me to the world of personal computers (really grateful).When I went to the sub -electronics from Shohei Bridge, I was surprised at the software of the software.You can see a little on the shelves or moving inside the store, but Apple II software was quite different from what you imagined.
There are games, wormy tools and programming worlds, but there are many things that are different.It is a pioneering software that will form a genre after that, an animation, music and an authoring tool of class newspapers, and a god -like software caused by an impossible technique and ideas that one genius created in the 8 -bit era.It was fun to have.
What it was at that time was revived in a booklet (although it was excavated from my bookshelf about a year ago) that I came up with Appole IIC.At that time, it was made by Canon sales that had been selling Apple, and it is a comprehensive computer introductory book with 160 pages.
"The first para" was created by Canon sales, which sold Apple products in Japan."Rocky -kun's Long Tsu" introduced on the photo page is a game that I think is still the best programming study software.If you are interested, try "Robot Odyssey Rewired" using the same engine on the web.
Speaking of 1984 when Apple IIC was released, Apple was the year when Macintosh was released.The first Macintosh was released in January of the same year and Apple IIC was released in April.Why was 8 -bit Apple IICs released at this time?The reason was that the Apple II series, released in 1977, was introduced to school more and more, and we wanted more and more easy -to -use computers for children and at home.
In the United States, it is famous for its advertising to appeal to women, but I think it was sold exclusively in Japan in Japan.The symbol of this was the booklet titled in the hiragana called "The First Puru".
Even if you open this booklet now, the tempo is well told, "Oh, this kind of content is necessary to start a computer."Starting with a picture book story that is a little plenty (the heat of the microcomputer revolution at the time), how to interact with computers, such as how to organize floppy, how to use keyboards, copy problems, and care for overuse.It is being.
The band in Table 4 is confidently written as "how to use the computer that no one wrote".Actually, I remembered that I thought a book that would require if I bought a personal computer like this was to make myself.I am impressed with my lack of execution, which I had been killing for 35 years.And after that, there is a place where no one has written such a book.
By the way, according to IZUMI Aizu in the credits of the book, he wants to reprint "The First Puru" (connected to the publishers and groups who are interested).Then, of course, it seems good that a revised edition will be issued in this era, where each child is given a computer at the GIGA school.At the same time, what can be used is expanding, and at the same time, there are more things to be aware of, such as cyber security and SNS.
I think computers should be cool
Familiar Apple's joystick, mouse and Apple IIC body.
There are four or five other things I want to talk about in Apple IIC, and this time I was going to do this, but I can't help but touch the design.A body design based on white called "Snow White" with a revolutionary frog design as a computer at the time.Behind them, there is a handle that can be carried around, and when you put it, you can lift the back a little.
And after all, the movie "E" was also called "ET Monitor" in the United States..T.Combined with a dedicated monochrome spay like an alien.The body is lined up by the back side and placed on the desk, but this ET monitor can be placed in a free direction in the left and right direction, and the screen can be tilt up and down.
When I saw an acquaintance put the main body and the display in a positional relationship at a moderate angle, he said, "It's good."A stable beauty, though there is a movement reminiscent of "Return Beautiful Bouquet" by Edo painter, Shonon Hishikawa, famous for stamps.In April this year, there is also fun like the "Mysterious Balun Stable" (Tencemulity Structure) in the 6th and July issue of "8th grade elementary school student".
The IBM PC and PC-9801 are designed to put a box close to the cube on a square flat box and put a keyboard like a horizontal washing board in front of it.The first Macintosh also feels like a small and square guy stands on the desk (although it was very fresh at the time).
Probably, I don't know if you don't see the actual Apple IIC in this area, but I will put a link because there is a site that conveys that feeling.

So why the computer must be cool is just like being told in "The first time".In other words, more than playing with a computer or writing sentences in a word processor (although it's a fun and important computer).Forcing you to force yourself to grow users is because humans get cooler.It is good that the contents and appearance match!
By the way, the 23rd of the block de gadgets was packed with Apple IICs released by Apple Computers in 1984.This is my first computer that I bought for the first time, one of the coolest computers in history.Perhaps one mountain is made of nano blocks, and if the vertical and horizontal size is reduced, it is made in a size that is invisible to Apple IIC.Below, look.
By the way, something that I need to add at the end happened.
It is the sudden obituary of Hasegawa Hiroshi who invited me at the beginning to a computer while trying to finish writing this manuscript.He was also a member of the Kitakitazawa used book cafe bar, and told me that it was exactly because the person who uses a personal computer is free.When I was watching Twitter, there was a person who wrote, "Subculture human from the root.
Definitely, if I didn't meet him, I wouldn't be here now.
