Mac Documentaries Showing Online and Off

Looking for some Mac-related movie viewing? Last year’s documentaries “MacHEADS” and “Welcome To Macintosh” were both screened at Macworld Expo in January 2009, but, being small independent films, haven’t been shown in many theaters. However, if you weren’t at Macworld Expo, and haven’t had a chance to see them on DVD in the meantime, you’re not out of luck. (And yes, I appear in “MacHEADS” a couple of times, with lots of other familiar faces from Macworld Expo).

“MacHEADS” has aired a few times on CNBC, including repeat showings this past weekend. “Welcome to Macintosh” also ran on CNBC this month.

If you didn’t catch the movies on CNBC, SnagFilms, a site dedicated to providing free streaming access to documentaries, now carries both “MacHEADS” and “Welcome to Macintosh,” so you can watch them any time you want.

Similarly, the TV site Hulu has “MacHEADS,” and Netflix subscribers can also stream “Welcome to Macintosh.”
