[geeks] Anyone watch "60 Minutes" last night?

[Lionel Peterson]

They had a piece about the Hubble telescope that was interesting, but what I noticed was that everyone they showed "working hard at their computers" (visual filler while the reporter was speaking off camera) were working on Sun workstations.

They had 21" monitors and Sun 5 type keyboards... Didn't see any workstations though...

Anyway, I thought it was neat... Kinda like the excitement I get when I see an AT&T UnixPC/7300 in a movie set (now they look like spiffy Commodore PETs, but back then I thought they were good looking... Tastes change, now I love my Dual 450 MHz U60 - that is a nice desktop, but not much to look at. ;^)
