Default 1982 AT&T Bell Labs UNIX promotional video
Ran across this video off of the at&t archives. I figured I'd share.

I wish Adobe Flash used for that video was history, too.

I thought I posted this last January on the forums when I posted it to my old web site, daily.onlybsd.com. It's a link to the future of AT&T computing and how it will effect the future. Thanks for posting UNIXGod.
