DownMemoryLane

Two bits of "how the world looked then" history.

The first, Von Neuman's Universe is a talk by George Dyson on the early history computing, including some bits only recently unearthed from boxes at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton.

The second, "The Computer: How it Works", is how computers were explained to the general public in the 70s. Gaze in wonder at the illustrations.
