This is an aside, but I’d never seen that “Beyond 2000” show before.
Retro future is a favorite topic of mine, so thanks for sharing.
Yeeesh though, re: part 2 of that episode, it’s wild to watch people in 1988 articulate the looming threat of global warming, and to hear them say on this 25 year old program “we’ve known about this for 30 years”
Yep. I think I saw these on the TV show "Beyond 2000".
Beyond 2000 was a wonderful show. Funnily enough the one episode I remember the most is the one about RFID tags and possibly using them for scanning purchases in shops, where you'd just put your bags in correct place and it would count them up - with a joke that it won't work for everything, pointing to loosely packed vegetables :-)
I remember a TV show from the 90s that discussed minitel called Beyond 2000. As a young kid I loved that show as they always covered cool technology at the time.
I saw this device in an episode of the TV show Beyond 2000. And this was back in the early to mid 90s.
