I've been looking around www.archive.org for a while now. Lots of interesting and some amusing stuff there (have a look at the old cowboy movies!).
Came across a lot of archived episodes of the Computer Chronicles. Interesting programs made during the earlier (late 80s and 90s) history of personal computing. BBS's. OS2, DOS, the beginning of Windows, and even some mention of Linux. Interviews with guys like Gary Kildall, etc.
I don't know how correct all the information is, but it gives an interesting insight into people's opinions at the time.
