A classic kind of LGR thing this time around! Taking a look at the Intermatrix MacPhone from 1984, one of the early Macintosh add-ons from the year the system debuted.

Pretty straightforward episode here! Just going over a little history, unboxing and setting it up, and testing it out in various ways. To be honest this is an even simpler device than I thought it was going into this, heh. Hope y'all enjoy and thank you for your ongoing support!

The 1984 MacPhone for Apple Macintosh Computers

Unboxing and setting up this 80s retro oddity on LGR! The Intermatrix Mac Phone is an early peripheral for the original Apple Mac computer from 1984. For $200 back then you got a telephone to stick on the side of your system, a dialer program... and that's about it! It's become a rather rare collectible, so let's install and test this one 40 years later. ● Become an LGR YouTube member to see videos early and more! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLx053rWZxCiYWsBETgdKrQ/join ● LGR elsewhere online: https://www.patreon.com/LazyGameReviews https://www.twitter.com/LazyGameReviews https://www.facebook.com/LazyGameReviews ● Background music licensed from: https://www.epidemicsound.com 00:00 introduction 01:49 history 04:29 unboxing 05:42 setup problems 08:08 setup success 10:40 software 13:02 phone calls 15:04 rotary phone 16:19 text to speech 17:10 vaporwave 18:03 disassembly 18:57 outroduction #LGR #retro #computer #apple #phone
