Anyone watching this new US drama? - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2543312/?ref_=fn_al_tt...
Think it's an online only jobby for the UK.
Set in the early 80's, it's a fictional drama based around the "personal computing boom through the eyes of a visionary, an engineer and a prodigy whose innovations directly confront the corporate behemoths (IBM) of the time"
Kinda a Steve Jobs / Steve Wozniak type of thing if you will.
It's a little cliché in places and some of the tech props they use are far too new but it's been sufficiently interesting to keep me hooked for the 5 episodes so far.
I only originally tuned in to it as I liked the composer of the music (Paul Haslinger) he's done a full 80's synth/electronic score which I'm quite enjoying also, was pleased that it was a good programme too.
Worth a punt if you're looking for something to watch.
