Adam Bowen, one of the first reporters on Simon Townsend's Wonder World!, finds out all you need to know about the new Apple II Computer, which has just been released in Australia.

Wonder World! often covered stories about technology, bringing the latest developments in machines, computers and gadgets to viewers.

These were fascinating stories at the time as home computers were not as widely available as they would become. Now these stories have a different appeal, offering a snapshot of what cutting-edge consumer technology looked like in the late 1970s and early '80s.
