Unfortunately, that video is marked 'private', so I can't actually watch it.

And I'm jealous, you actually registered on Digg 4 whole days before I
did.  (And almost 5 years ago!)

> John Linville, a retro hobbyist, has created a full motion video player (with sound!) for the old Tandy/Radio Shack TRS-80 Color Computer 3 (circa 1986). Although the resolution isn't great (it looks like web video from the mid 1990s), it's amazing a 1.89mhz 8-bit processor with NO real graphics hardware (just a bitmap screen) could do it at all.
