Yes, the bundle thing is also true. I found the bit about app stores while I was trying to find a year.

No screenshots. I just remembered that the bundle thing was something I was excited about wrt Next at the time. And booting from Cdrom, and display postscript. I wanted one so badly but by the time I had money they were very obsolete.

There's no reference though. It's just:

> creating the first App Store which was originally demonstrated to Steve Jobs in 1993

without any footnotes. Would have loved to actually read something on the topic.

I only know really know about it from memory and even then it's from reading PC-World, not direct experience.

The Bundle was one of those great ideas for users that got kicked in the nuts by Copy Protection methods until signing and activation was bult into the OS proper.

Even on early Windows all you had to do was xcopy a directory to share it with friends. My Quake2 folder still follows me from machine to machine.

Yeah, I get what you're saying about bundles, and I think they're a great idea, I just want to see if you have anything about what you said re: a place to buy bundles online.
