Regis McKenna has very kindly donated rare vintage footage of Steve Jobs giving a presentation in the early 1980’s to the Computer History Museum. It shows Jobs discussing the early history of Apple, and speaking in his usual inspiring manner.

Jobs discusses everything from the way in which computers will empower people, to the way that children just might know more than he did about computers.

Jobs always wanted to see how much “horsepower we can get into a small box,” and that Apple was always going to be called Apple, unless a member of the small workforce at the time could come up with a better name by 17h00 on that day they set about choosing the iconic name.

He also avoids discussing the Next Big Thing a few times, and explains that Apple was always going to offer a broader line of products.
