Anyone else watching 'Halt and Catch Fire'?

Post by Cassius Clay »

Didn't think I'd like it, but it grabbed me from the first episode for some reason. Usually takes me two or three episodes to get into a show. It's pretty much a period drama taking place in the 80s (about the birth/evolution of the PC/internet). It's very 80s in style (music, clothes)...and evokes nostalgic feelings in me. First season's on Netflix.

If you're a computer geek and you're watching, tell me what you think about it.

I'm enjoying it. I started programming in 1979. I wasn't heavily geeky as the characters in the show, but it does spark some memories here and there.
