The Computer Chronicles was a US television series, broadcast during 1981-2002, which documented the rise of the personal computer from its infancy to the immense market at the turn of the century. The series was created in the Fall of 1981, by Stewart Cheifet (later co-host), then the station manager of the College of San Mateo's KCSM-TV, initially broadcast as a local weekly series. Jim Warren was its founding host for its 1981-1982 season. It aired continuously from 1981 to 2002 with Cheifet co-hosting most of its later seasons. Gary Kildall served as co-host for six years (1983 to 1990) providing insights and commentary on products as well as discussions on the future of the ever-expanding personal computer sphere.
During the 1980s, the show had many supporting presenters including:
* George Morrow: Presenter and commentator who for a time headed the Morrow Design company, Morrow was a well known face on the Chronicles until the 1990s. Morrow died in 2003.
* Paul Schindler: Featured predominantly in software reviews, Schindler contributed to the series until the early 1990s.
* Wendy Woods: Provided reports for many software and hardware products, as well as talking with the main presenters in the studio about specific topics.
The Computer Chronicles format remained relatively unchanged throughout its run, except perhaps with the noticeable difference in presenting style; originally formal it evolved into a more relaxed, casual style. From 1984 onward the last five minutes or so featured Random Access, a section which gave the viewer the latest computer news from the home and business markets. Stewart Chiefet, Janelle Stelson and various other individuals presented the segment. Random Access was discontinued in 1994.
Despite performing well in the ratings in the United States and being broadcast throughout the world, the Computer Chronicles was cancelled in 2002.
Dang!

What do you get when you mix a Christmas Light show with Guitar Hero? Christmas Light Hero! A real game you play with a wii wireless guitar controller. Optional TV screen is available if you get in trouble, but if you use the screen, you don't get your name in the high score list. Song is "Cliffs of Dover" by the incredible Eric Johnson.
Watch in HQ if you can - It is worth it.

The conclusion to our "Christmas Eve Panic" video and our yearly video showing our Christmas Gifts. But this year, instead of bragging about what stuff we got for 10 mins, we add real-life cutscenes of us reenacting the games we got. Most of the jokes are insde jokes, so you may not get some of them if you haven't played the game (Ex: the way i turn around when i walk into the house). We know this is nearly a month late. We were either sick, on vacation, too busy, or at my high school soccer tournament. We've been working on this bit by bit over several weeks. As you can imagine by watching this, this took hours of editing and alot of hard work from the both of us! We hope you enjoy it!
