1984...

After a bit of poking around on the web, I came across the Apple commercial -- "1984". According to Wikipedia...


"1984" is an American television commercial that introduced the Apple Macintosh personal computer. It was conceived by Steve Hayden, Brent Thomas and Lee Clow at Chiat\Day, produced by New York production company Fairbanks Films, and directed by Ridley Scott. English athlete Anya Major performed as the unnamed heroine and David Graham as Big Brother... Originally a subject of contention within Apple, it has subsequently been called a watershed event and a masterpiece in advertising.
At one time, I had preserved this iconic ad on VHS, but, after the Ultimate Otaku Fall Cleanup, that commercial went away. YouTube can to the rescue and I was able to add this item to the archive.
