I would die of wisdom if i was in that room. I realised halfway that the audience comprised of many of the legends of Silicon Valley.

Recorded in 2001 and an Ipad is already sitting on the desk, those Xerox Parc engineers are true legends :-) I would love to see a similar talk with Charles Simonyi

ComputerHistory you should make a transcript so people can be able to reference when students do research behind the history of the Personal Computer.

The sound on this recording is really awful. This is what happens when people think that "we don't need a sound technician, we'll just turn on the equipment and record!"

Nice to see the trail blazers and hear their stories.
