That video was really cool. The phone 'phreaking' is extremely interesting.

Re: Video Link, The Early Days of personal computers
I love stuff like this. I started selling computers in 1982 - the Olivetti M-16 offered by an Olivetti typewriter dealer. In 1983 a public television series The Computer Chronicles http://www.archive.org/details/computerchronicles aired and helped me get a bigger perspective of what was happening in the industry. Cutting edge, man!
