It's a screen capture motion picutre, I guess. I wasn't sure about what to call it. It is not, anyway, video in the sense of <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Grandaddy/_/Jed%27s+Other+Poem+(Beautiful+Ground)" rel="nofollow"><i>Jed's Other Poem (Beautiful Ground).</i></a> Thanks for your work on this great project, Matt.

Just to be clear, the "video" of the 1992-era Mac is actually video capture of an emulation using one of the disk images we spawned from the original floppy. (You also get to see the poem run in the "bootleg" footage we posted from the original launch, but it's not real legible there.) Today, December 9th, is the 16th anniversary of that launch.
