July 3, 1989
I think we’re over the hump. Nearly all the music is done, and it’s fine – better than I’d hoped for, once I got over the initial disappointment of remembering what a piece of shit this machine is. There’s an opening-titles crescendo that’s genuinely thrilling. (Or at least, Dad and I have talked ourselves into believing it is – remember, this is an Apple II.)
Robert had better be blown away. The sad thing is, probably very few other people at Broderbund will be – they’re used to Mac and Amiga and Atari ST music. Oh well. Somewhere, someone must appreciate this.
I’ll miss the San Francisco 4th of July fireworks, but it was worth it.


I can still hear the music, in all it’s Apple IIe glory, so there’s that.
