Magic Cap Introduction Demo 1/6/94

A demo of Magic Cap, the pocket-computer interface from General Magic, recorded in January 1994 and posted by Andy Hertzfeld, who worked on it. It shows the room-and-objects metaphor the software used in place of a conventional desktop.

HN treats it as a key piece of history, tying General Magic's ideas to later products like Clippy and Java.
