I've got a conundrum!
I acquired a Mac demo tape, from the original 1984 Mac a few months ago (last summer, actually) and it is shrinkwrapped! Un-opened!
Here is a pic:
That's not my picture. But the tape I have is the one on the right. But unlike the photo, mine has never been opened. I don't even know what the tape quality is, ie, if it has degraded over the past two decades.
Anyway, here's what I'm unsure of:
1.) Should I open the tape and record it onto my Mac and digitize it?
2.) or should I leave it un-opened and as-is?
UPDATE: I found it - http://www.guidebookgallery.org/tutorials/mac1984
