A bunch of people already saw it at VCF 7. I
couldn't be there last year.
Anyone who saw it care to offer some thoughts?
What was presented was a rough cut of one episode only; there are 8 in
the DVD set. I was the post-production quality tech, so I've seen the
entire thing already in nearly-finished form. It's over 5 hours of
material divided up semi logically into episodes (birth of the BBS,
death of the BBS, social interaction between user-user, sysop-sysop,
sysop-user, the "art" scene (drawing pictures using only ASCII), etc.).
