for example. Most of these systems were things that humans interacted with in some way, and that interaction is hard to get from static images. Watching a video of Larry Tesler demonstrating the Alto is great - and even better if you can turn around and try an emulated Alto in your browser (of course operational hardware would be even better.)
* Also, not related to Oral Histories, but could CHM update their historical narrative to include the Vannevar Bush-designed computers that the NSA's predecessor OP-20-g used? https://www.governmentattic.org/8docs/NSA-WasntAllMagic_2002.... ; In so doing, I feel CHM needs to further neutralized its Silicon Valley centered-ness. Fred Terman may be the godfather of Silicon Valley, but even godfathers once needed thesis advisors, and his had the initials 'VB'.
Let's be more honest: if the power is on, the sheriff isn't locking your doors, but customers can't reach your web presence, the problem isn't really "the entrepreneur".
As a CHM staffer who produced the Lisa@40 and Mac@40 events, I'm so gratified to hear these were as meaningful to you as they were to me! :)
So grateful to have you as a member. Don't miss our upcoming 1995 retrospective event focusing on Netscape's IPO and Windows 95 & Internet Explorer, on August 26! Should be a another fun nostalgic event: https://computerhistory.org/events/1995-the-internets-big-ba...
Oh, and I sat in on the interview with Bill Atkinson posted by OP and it's great to see this clip getting some love from HN. Our Oral History program is so awesome too.
