On January 12th 1984 Sir Clive Sinclair presented the Sinclair QL Professional Computer in a Hollywood-style launch event at the Intercontinental Hotel, Hyde Park Corner, London. This was exactly 12 days earlier than Steve Jobs presented the Apple Macintosh.
So both the QL and Mac had their 25th anniversary in 2009. To celebrate the event there was an international show in Lucerne, Switzerland. For more information on the event (including downloads) please visit this webpage: http://tinyurl.com/ql-mac-show
Filmed at the international "QL and Mac are 25" show in Lucerne, Switzerland using my Panasonic LUMIX DMC-TZ7.
Finally the video footage has been catalogued, ordered, brushed up (video noise, audio volume), edited and became a final director's cut in this highlight trailer. All this took much more human and processing power than expected. The full length videos of the 8 sessions are online for public viewing! Just browse down the events webpage until you'll see the fire and enjoy the easy navigation through the YouTube video playlist. There's more than 5 hours of video footage for you to enjoy. So those who did not attend the event can now "attend" the show in webcast format. http://tinyurl.com/ql-mac-show
