This Computer Chronicles Show on HyperCard by far in my opinion was the best show.
It brings back fond memories for me. The year was 1987; I had just started reading about HyperCard in my issue of MacUser Magazine. I turned on the TV flipped to our local PBS station to watch that weeks episode of the Computer Chronicles, and I heard Stewart Cheifet say HyperCard what is it, its not hyper, its not even a card, its not quite system software its not quite application software I was blown away, I could not get the tape in the recorder fast enough. And now seeing it again in high quality MPEG2 file format is a real treat for me. Thank you Stewart Cheifet & the Internet Archive Site for bringing this show and many others like it back, so that Computer History can indeed be enjoyed by all.

Thank you.
