A guy from Canada who knows that I computers from the late 1970s to mid
1980 notified me about Bits And Bytes. There are also some people from the
US and UK. Reading that they pointed me to The Computer Chronicles (US)
and The Computer Programme (UK).

Watch only the first 46 seconds of
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtMWEiCdsfc what became a cult in the
UK. "Don't expect the computer revolution to happen tomorrow - it happens
now". Then similar like Bits & Bytes intro music borrowed heavily from
Kraftwerk's Neon Lights, in the Computer Programme a slightly altered
Computer World kicks in.

Computer Programme predates Bits And Bytes by more than a year.
