He really has gone down hill since that great movie he had "Triumph of the nerds", was really interesting seeing the history of Steve Jobs and Bill Gates starting their companies. Probably one of the better things I've seen on PBS
- toni 17y agoHe also had a very interesting follow-up series "Nerds 2.0.1" http://www.pbs.org/opb/nerds2.0.1/ http://www.pbs.org/opb/nerds2.0.1/ which is the history of the early internet. Make sure to watch that too!
- e1ven 17y agoI ended up buying a ebay copy of the VHS for 2.0.1, but I've never seen it on DVD- Were you able to find a copy that I'd missed?
- toni 17y agoNo, probably it was never released on DVD. I always wondered why he didn't continue the series with, say, Nerds 2.1 (The Fall of The Nerds) covering after-the-bubble internet and Nerds 2.5 (A New Dawn) about web 2.0 It looked like a solid and successful storyline, so much so that he could eventually become a nice cliche. Really pity he stopped working on the series. Did he ever give any explanation as to why he never made another sequel?
- access_denied 17y agoIn one of his blogs he mentioned problem with a co-producer an his rights to the material.
