Thought some might enjoy this, the older folks. This is BITS AND BYTES from TVO back in about 1983.
This is likely for me the first spark that light my fire into the computer field.
Then you probably remember Jim Butterfield, who was a regular on TVO back then. I knew him from work at CNCP Telecommunications. By 1983, I had my own computer, an IMSAI 8080, for 7 years and worked as a computer tech on the old "mini" computers, for 6. Incidentally, a show I used to watch was "The Computer Chronicles" on PBS. Gary Killdall, the creator of CP/M, was a regular on that show. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Butterfield https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IMSAI_8080 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gary_Kildall https://www.youtube.com/user/ComputerChroniclesYT
