I noticed a recent link to an article about the Swyft Card, Archy and Canon Cat. This is a video of Sherwin Gooch interviewing Jef Raskin for the TV program "High Tech Heroes." I think this was from '92, which is why the video looks like it was made with a Video Toaster. Back in the day all we had was standard definition analog video... And we liked it that way.
