I remember Stewart Cheifet from the computer chronicles. Net cafe seems ok though.

Computer Chronicles and Net Cafe were two of my fave computer shows going back to the early 80's, and I attribute much of where I'm at today to the shows since they were the only televised computer-related shows during the 80's and early 90's.

It's funny this comes up now because Retrobits Podcast did an interview with Stewart Cheifet (http://retrobits.libsyn.com/index.php?post_id=620244) that's really good. Part 1 came out I think a few weeks ago and I'm still waiting to hear Part 2 since it hasn't been released yet. And yeah most of the episodes are now available on Archive.org. For anyone interested in tech history these are timeless to watch.

For those young people out there that want to learn how far we've come with computers, archive.org has most of the computer chronicles episodes going back to the beginning in 1983. I still get a kick out of those.
