i was lucky enough to manage to get an email through to Cheifet back in 2020, thanking him for Computer Chronicles and, in jest, hoping that John Dvorak had finished putting back together that PS/2 he took apart by now.

he remarked on a tidbit that he mentioned in other interviews, about a demo by Peter Norton of UnErase that went badly on stage, sadly i reckon that must've happened on an episode prior to Computer Chronicles' syndication and i couldn't find any traces of it

oh it might be this one? youtu.be/81qCH_JxAfw?t=1416

it doesn't look like a bad demo though, i wonder if he was recalling a different demo, it's possible this would be a second time Norton was on the show after it started being syndicated

@mavica_again @aradiogurl oh wow … I was just watching a bunch of his clips on YouTube this past month

@whophd @mavica_again that's how I felt, episodes of Computer Chronicles are regularly on our TVs.
