Heres's also a fun little video of vintage Dawkins showing off his program: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDxaCJmlIGo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDxaCJmlIGo
I have fond memories of programming variants of Dawkin's Biomorphs program in my early teens. I even sent him one of my creations, to which a grad student of his replied with kind encouragement!

- cromwellian 12y agoWhat I like about that Dawkin's video is that it appears he's using an Amiga. :)
