Yeah, but what you're forgetting [!!] is that all this stuff was actually designed by Woz.

@Erzengel...

the T-shirts are gay in so many ways but espeicaly the sense with a man on a man relationship, and this is aimed at you becuase pc users are from earth and so are mac users, pc's just don't sport the homo colors

My mom has a bunch of this kind of stuff. She was an Apple campus rep at her university (she is a retired university professor) in the 80s. Students and faculty could order Macs (and Apple IIs) through her for a discount. I have a set of these mugs.

I had one of those t-shirts when I was kid. Had I only been smart enough to keep it around for one of my daughters to wear when she's in middle school.

Nah, she'd probably get beat up by some jealous apple fan-boi gang so they could steal it.

They aren't gay! They just support the GLBT...

How much of that stuff do you think Steve Jobs not only owns, but still has on display in his house?

With a bit of hair dye and a Carol Ann, that is pretty much the family from Poltergeist, right there.

@ HawkWolf
Yup, these shirts are totally gay, and for that reason, they could be a real hit if you sell them today... have you checked the world lately? we straigth guys are a minory. Of course is not bad, that leaves more chicks for us :D
Plus, you know, apple users are from venus, pc users are from mars.

Oh my god. I had this gift catalog. (And the mug, and the diskette holder). Not to mention the Apple ][+ and the floppy drive. MMMMM. 16 sector booting.

I would totally rock that t shirt, but I'm one of those indie hipster bastards that wears weird vintage clothing just because, also I'm not bothered by the rainbow, because I'm happily married, and secure in my sexuality. I say we petition Jobs to bring this stuff back.

Shows what you know about fashion, HawkWolf. Those shirts would do well today now that they are "retro". Girls are all over that!

Given that this was the early 80's, the two girls ended up likely doing porn.

Okay. When I say, "those tee shirts are gay," I don't mean that they're ... gay like when eminem says his friends are gay to imply that they suck.

I mean, you wouldn't be selling those now, because they're GAY. And you know what they say about apple users...

ooooh...diskette files!

I actually owned one of those Apple diskette files. As to the identity of the models, it's almost certain that it's an Apple employee and his family....
