Comments: Watching A Seminal Moment In Computing

Awesome video I remember watching it at Reboot7 and then being part of the video conversation with Doug afterwards. I would love to get a copy of the 1968 film made by the computer lab here in Cambridge to compare with Dougs film. (http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/UoCCL/misc/EDSAC99/history.html)

It would be interesting to see the Cambridge film on its own. Thanks for the link - I didn't know too much about what the university here had been up to over the years in computing. I remember seeing the first stored-program computer (which is mentioned in passing) at Manchester when choosing which uni to attend.
