Which Ads Should I Look For?
Help direct the future of Computer Ads from the Past.
Hello,
I was just scrolling through my collection of computer ads, trying to figure which one to write about next. I started wondering if there were any ads or products that you guys would like to see written about. So, I decided to put the question directly to you folk: What products would you like to see covered? Post the name (or names) that you would like to see in the comments below. I’ll do my best to find an ad for it.
This is your chance to help direct the future content of this newsletter. Thanks for your assistance.

One ad I especially remember was for Data General: it showed marvelous (but out of date) cavalry troops preparing to engage artillery!
I worked for Datapoint, and would like to see CTC/Datapoint ads (though there weren't very many of them, as marketing wasn't their forth!
I’m most nostalgic for Apple / Mac related ads and most interested in ads for games. But in general, if an ad is particularly funny or clever or weird, I’m happy to see it.
Keep up the great work!
