Where Are They Now?

On the old Apple DOS 3.2 disks was a cool Integer BASIC program called "APPLE-VISION". In hi-res graphics, it drew a room with a TV, and after the picture was complete, the man on the screen danced to the song "Turkey In The Straw". It was amazing to see what that 4K Apple II was capable of doing! Released originally by SoftTape and later included by Apple on their DOS disks, APPLE-VISION used a shape table to animate the dancing man and a tone-generator subroutine to play the music.

Bob has written other programs over the years, and has been involved in many other interesting activities.

He also has a list of software he has written on this page.
