Somewhat low quality movie of me and teenage son playing with my 1987 Mac Plus in April 2012 : booting up and playing various games. It had been hidden at the back of the house for many years. Last used about 1993.  I dug it out it out and switched it on. Disturbing "clack" noise and some smoke ... so I switched it off quickly. For some dumb reason I tried again two weeks later and it WORKED PERFECTLY. No idea what went bang ! But I thought I should film it before it finally explodes....  Some of the "watch my Mac booting" vids on Youtube are like watching paint dry... so I tried at least to do some cutting and cross-fading....
