This review is from: The Microprocessor Chronicles: The History of the Microprocessor (DVD)

Not exactly what I envisioned when I purchased, but that doesn't mean that it isn't informative. This video tends to be a bit like watching paint dry, for me to get through this I am going to have to watch it in small doses over time. I would recommend it to Computer and Electronic Engineers or well versed enthusiasts as a history source, but not to those of us with limited knowledge in the field. I think that I was hoping it was something more along the lines of the Silicon Run Series, which I believe that I have seen one of in a college class. This video is strictly one on one interviews in cubicle/office type settings with the players recalling how things went down, that's it.
