There's a programme on BBC2, Thursday 6th March at 6.30AM (yup, AM), called
"The Programmers"
It purports to be about "the history of computing, from hardware and
software to programming, and the people who devised the code to make them
work".
I'll tape it (if I remember). I suspect it's an Open University programme,
so with a bit of luck it'll show some truly old hardware, as well as some
shocking kipper ties and psychedelic chunky-knit jumpers :)
