Nabu PC

So the Nabu PC is an interesting piece of history. It's from the 1980s US, and while it is a computer, it links directly to cable TV and downloads programs from there. A lot of them were made available recently, and people got interested.
One small problem... while the computer runs, there is no longer any cable network for it to connect to. But does that stop people these days? Heck no! DJ Sures talked with Leo, a technician who worked on the Nabu, and put together code to talk to the Nabu and to link up to a repository of the cable programming. Great stuff!
(He has a lot of other videos about how to hook all this up.)
