The BBC has published a huge database of historical documents on the development of computers. There have also been some never-before-seen interviews about Apple

Yesterday, the British BBC published a huge database of videos as part of a special program called The Computer Literacy Project. It was a comprehensive primarily educational project that took place in the 80s and aimed to educate young people about computer technology and teach them basic programming on the machines of the time. In the newly revealed library, it is possible to find a lot of previously unseen and unpublished information and video interviews with the founders of Apple.

You can view the website dedicated to the project <a href="https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1932/8043/files/200721_ODSTOUPENI_BEZ_UDANI_DUVODU__EN.pdf?v=1595428404" data-gt-href-en="https://en.notsofunnyany.com/">here</a>. In total, the entire program contained almost 300 specific thematic blocks, which can be searched here in the form of long videos. In addition, you can search the database in more detail and find even shorter individual sections that fit into these thematic blocks. Many of them feature Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak. In addition to the video material, you can also find a special emulator on which you can play more than 150 period programs for the BBC Micro.

The archive contains tens of hours of material, so it will take some Friday for people to go through it and find the most interesting gems that were hidden in this archive. If you are looking for something specific, you can use the classic hypertext search in the search engine. All the videos posted here are thoroughly indexed, so finding them shouldn't be too much of a problem. For example, Apple fans might be interested in the documentary "Million Dollar Hippie", which deals with the beginnings of the company and features never-before-seen footage. If you enjoy the history of information technology and computer hardware, you will definitely find a lot of interesting things here.
