Enjoy.

it is so fortunate that the history of the pioneers of Computer/Internet/Web can be archive for future generations - as opposed to just reading Old News Groups
Thanks.
It's funny and really cool!
I hope to one day when I have grand kids (I'm 19) tell them what I was doing when I was their age.
Edit: Wow, I'm at the last 5 minutes of the video, I love that he thinks ideas are free. He doesn't care about making the money, he cares about the evolution of the ideas.
I like to share a link to Frode Hegland's site at http://www.invisiblerevolution.net/
Please follow the video and audio links at the bottom of the page. Frode has an excellent collection of audio and video interviews with Doug Engelbart.
enjoy

check out www.bootstrap.org - the official Engelbart-Site and there is another excellent interview @ www.pbs.org/nerdtv/ - Cringley's series of tech-gurus. (This time the audio is very good).
Realize. The old man (in the NerdTV-Piece) is talking soft and tender but his thoughs are sharp and his ideas edgy. I would love to have such a brain at that age...
There is wisdom in old men, we can sip from
