The Year Was 1969...

And some futurist came up with this--computers in 1999. Found it on You Tube:



Remarkable how close they came--at least conceptually. They missed the mark on the interface, but hit the bulls eye when it came to many of the computer functions we now take for granted.

I'm not sure of the origin of this film, but in this clip the focus was on functionality and it got me wondering if there was a "part II" that focused on entertainment.

One can imagine what things will be like 40 years from now. Maybe I should make a film?
