The Mac commercial that never aired: Original Mac design team’s ‘self-congratulatory’ interview video

Andy Hertzfeld, computer scientist and member of the original Apple Macintosh development team during the 1980s, has posted a video of snippets from interviews with members of the original Macintosh team, recorded in October 1983 for projected TV commercials that were never created or aired.

“It never aired because Apple deemed it too self-congratulatory, although it was used in some promotional materials sent to dealers,” Hertzfeld wrote on his Google+ page.

The Chiat Day video features Burrell Smith, Andy Hertzfeld, George Crow, Bill Atkinson and Mike Murray.
