Very cool. I liked the Macphone, that would have been the ultimate gadget back in the 80-ties!

The "Snow White" studies are nice too.

Makes me wonder what our computers today will look like in 20 years. Seriously, they had an iphone and Macbook in the 80's. If aliens werent involved, then I dont know who, or what!
