Nothing to "phone home" about it. Therefore I find all that stir about

I thought I had already tried to explain what was (in my view, as -
among other things - a computer journalist) regarded as special and
interesting about that piece.
The whole point was that it was the latest, still-scarce piece of

"knowing about old computers" would regard as the first Apple.
This is not a hard point to grasp, surely?
