Pretty awesome, thanks. I've been bingeing on retro computing documentaries, and this is right up with the best of them.
If anyone else is interested, I'd heartily recommend:
- The entire "From Bedrooms to Billions" documentary series (3x2h pieces, spanning the UK computing scene, the Amiga and the PlayStation, with several discussions on game music and demoscene)
- "The Chiptune Story", which covers the SID chip and the Amiga (there's also "The Commodore Story")
