We love us some conventions, be they KansasFest, the Vintage Computer Festival, @party, ROFLCon, or WordCamp. We wonder why video games have abandoned humor and if Kickstarter can bring it back. Steve Wozniak is advising the Steve Jobs film — no, not the one in which Ashton Kutcher will play Steve Jobs, but that raises the question: who will play the hosts of Open Apple? On eBay, we’re suspicious of an Apple IIe that was supposedly once Jobs’, and we wish there were a more comprehensive online resource for Apple II clones.Click past the jump for links mentioned in this episode.Introduction (Apple II BitsA2Central.com6502 Lane: Beagle Bros clean-upCreative CommonsKansasFestKen’s photos of ROFLCon IIIOld Spice Guy’s Manta ClausKnow Your Meme: 10-hour videosWaltham Steampunk FestivalFelicia Day of The Guild does a steampunk photoshoot“Steve Jobs’ death could clear way for more open Apple“Jeri EllsworthWordPress turns 9WordCamp NYC 2012Windows Live Writer & MarsEditWebWorks GSIvan Drucker’s IvanExpertUser Login (Martin Haye’s Integer BASIC article for Juiced.GS (also available as a PDF)Super-Mon & NakedOSp2e (Pseudo-II Emulator)Ivan Drucker’s Structured ApplesoftII News (Photos from Vintage Computer Festival East 8.0More VCF 8.0 photos!Briel Computers at Maker FaireJeri Ellsworth’s Commodore 64 guitarBill Fickas advertises Guitar Hero for the ALF Music Card by ALF Products, Inc.The @party demoparty of Boston, MassachusettsInteractive fiction author Andrew Plotkin, aka ZarfThe Dreamhost text adventure for iOSLeisure Suit Larry succeeds on KickstarterComputerworld: “Crowdfunding: The latest way to get your project funded“Star Command funding not everything devs expected“The Man in the Leisure Suit” — an interview with Al LoweRed vs. Blue Halo machinima (NSFW)Cave Johnson: “When life gives you lemons, burn life’s house down”Space Quest franchise revived on KickstarterAGD Interactive – Download free King’s Quest remakesBattle Chess funding fails on KickstarterOrgan TrailWings of Valor, based on Wings of Fury (Touch Arcade’s review)Scientific American: Free apps drain batteryThe Woz hired as an adviser on Sony’s Steve Jobs biopicThe Steve Jobs movie will film at the original Apple garageMac G4 in Apple IIcDisc movie premiere at KansasFestKen Gagne in Fever PitchDisk II iPod chargerApple floppy drive audio amplifierSigned by Steve WozniakCult of Mac: “Drugs, Cops & Dismemberment: The Crazy Adventures Of A Vintage Mac Collector”, that being eBay user Wozniac (hat tip: Andrew Smith [nightskyre])Smithsonian exhibit “The Patents and Trademarks of Steve Jobs: Art and Technology that Changed the World“Buy a plaque at the Computer History Museum!Ultimate Apple II’s VGA card vaporwareConverting PowerPoint to Apple II slidesApple Pickings (eBay reorganizes vintage computing categoriesSteve Jobs’ personal Apple IIe?
