It’d be hilarious to send the dude sales guy from 1993 a 2024 iPhone 15 lol

I was born in 1985 and miss the 90’s pc advances. It was an interesting time

It was fun to watch these videos when they were first aired, but they are even more fun to watch today. For instance Shugart was wrong an every prediction he made here we know now but at the time, most people thought whatever he said was correct! 😂

30 years after this episode aired I assembled my 16 GB, 4790 K, GTX 970 system. Then I put Kubuntu on it. I do not miss Microsoft paint.

My first foray into computer art was on an Atari 130XE with Atari Touch Tablet and Atari Micro Illustrator. That was 160 x 192 pixels with 4 onscreen colours from a choice of 128 (16 hues x 8 shades). These days it's a Wacom Intuos and a 4K monitor.

That guy needs to learn how to say processor the correct way.

No playboy? The horror 😂

Man, hearing them talk about risc and AI is relevant even today! Crazy!

40 years later, and I finally get fiber run to my house.

I know the guy at 17:06.

Nowadays AI can make pictures of my cat and dog playing poker and smoking cigarettes 😂

megabytes lol

Digital component connection on a monitor from 1991??? Whaaat???? AMAZING! This monitor is crazy! Way to go mitsubishi!

'Real men don't use mice' lol

I miss the days when branch prediction was new and exciting. Today, it is just one vulnerability after another (e.g. Spectre)

I didn't know that the Macintosh was 32-bit! That's early for 32-bit.

It is nice to see people use computer technology as a way to make, organize and manage things in one single way.

I wish to watch "Technology and the Church Part 1 (2001) if it was made.

27:08 ... Stewart Cheifet's wardrobe courtesy Botany 500. Some parts not effecting the outcome of the game were edited.

Wait, how are some of his files in lower case? Is that a 4DOS thing?

Karen was phoning this whole thing in.

Entire industry popped up to develop RAM-resident programs which were never necessary if the IBM PC did not came with the 640K limitation and the DOS that was designed for it.

oh I remember spending hours, playing with the load high function, to try and free up as much of the first 640k or ram, just to get a game to run.

This show was so on the cutting edge of saving and preparing everybody.

15:05 - That, doesn't seem like that lasted long, don't remember Hollywood Video, Blockbuster, still doing this back during the SNES then N64 eras....

3:10 VS 3:21 ...Ouch! That's why games are amazing! And not a scratch on her, unlike her pride over that being aired.

5:30 this guy looks like he was made with Gary's Mod

20:11 "so what is the tradeoff for this tsr program that speeds up the disk?" "no tradeoff at all it just makes it faster" no ram used, huh? half-scam in plain daylight aired on PBS 130usd (330 today)

My College classes would have been much easier if I had known about this show back in 83...UNCC

This TV series should have been promoted by professors and admin in College 1984. No talk of this show. Would have clarified alot of the new jargon being taught in class.

virtual desktops in 1992. ah jesus, those parc guys

This show is the one I needed to watch. The database appears to be a relational kind. I use Microsoft Access 2021, but I first used Microsoft Access 2002 after I bought my first Microcomputer "Cybernet" in that year. I learned to use the database by making my own tables, queries, and some reports by myself, without using the wizard. Yes, Microsoft Access is a relational kind of database program. It is my favorite application program, just above Microsoft Word that has been my springboard.

I watch these microcomputer technology shows because I love to see people use microcomputers in many ways from past to present. That makes me wish The Computer Chronicles would exist today. Next, I should watch The Computer Chronicles-Computers and the Olympics Part 1.

oof so blurry

10 year old me lol

4:19 I don´t think so!

Even AI technology was talked about on this series by Gary Kildall. Frame 9:07....ua-cam.com/video/ptJ4q5K-aN8/v-deo.html

Got my first pc in 96! Had a Mac before that but Mac pre jobs coming back was pretty drab stuff. PC was king in 96.

I missed these series of Computer Chronicles.

15:32: Janelle Paterson? Why? In 23:00 she's Janelle Stelson.

This is gold, save at all costs 🎉

ah, my first machine - an AMD 386, 40mhz: it was 1992 and still 486s were mostly unaffordable. And yet, just 3 years later I could afford a Pentium 90mhz at the same price I paid for that 386. Good times (?)

800 bucks for that stupid golfing accessory??? Wow!

Bill Gates selling Macs, I've seen it all!

This video from 1985 has SO many implications even in 2024. Wild!!

Work from home. Aka telecommute LOL

11:59 is the wall of Lisas

Its amazing the longevity of the NT kernel, development started in 1989 and its still in use 35 years later and is wide spread. Dave Cutler who was the principal architect mentioned in an interview on Dave's garage channel probably about on 20% of the original code remains in todays Windows 11. It will likely decline in the coming years.

I still have an Amiga 1000 and Amiga 2000ss well as a Commodore 128, back in the day people with Apple, Atari computers would tell me that the Amiga computer was great at playing video games and I would reply that a Cray research XMP computer was even better to play video games on. the Amiga could software emulate an Apple Macintosh that ran faster then the Apple Macintosh, this was due to the Amiga having multiple processors, first the Motorola 68000 clocked at 7.14Mhz, then the Agnas processor that handled memory management operation as well as display processing via the sub copper co-processor and also a DMA controller. Then there was the Denise processer that handled the display generation and mouse / joystick position readers. At last there is Paula, the co-processor that handled 4 8 bit PCM audio channels up to 29K samples per second, Paula also handled joystick, serial io interrupts as well as floppy drive & the serial port. In 1992 I wrote a assembly program to have the 68000 send position date to the Paula chip to draw a star that was sent to 2 of the audio outputs, I tested it on a oscilloscope in the XYZ mode and it looked perfect than later ran to a straight audio amp that drove 2 real basic galvos that drew a star from a gas laser on the ceiling and… it worked, proudly showed it to my wife, she looked at the star on the ceiling, shrugged her shoulders and walked away 😉

Thanks it's very instructive for learning history of computer operating system. My favorite system is AmigaOS a derivative of UNIX.
