'NerdTV' is PBS's new tech TV show. NerdTV is not aired; instead each episode is released as a MPEG-4 video file, freely downloadable and licensed under a Creative Commons license. Transcripts and audio-only versions of the released episodes are available as well.
The show features Robert X. Cringely interviewing famous and influential nerds. Each episode is about one hour and features a single guest from the world of technology. Initially, a new episode was released on the Internet approximately every week but the pace of releases slowed down in late 2005/early 2006. Thirteen episodes comprising the first season have been released and another twelve have been promised for season two (in "late summer" after an initial delay [1]), along with a more consistent release schedule and better quality video files.
This episode is one of the first where subject is not an entrepreneur, which is to say he didn't create a company that was successful, though he did facilitate many successful startup companies through his investment portfolio while at Intel. The show follows his career in chronological including:
★ Biotech (although the term didn't exist yet) experiences with brain-wave analysis
★ networked computer monitoring in the hospital environment in the mid-late 1960s
★ starting & running a company in Israel at the end of the War of Attrition
★ working with Ken Olsen for Digital Equipment Corporation around the time of IBM's launch of the PC
★ to finally joining Intel and working with them to develop numerous new ideas, and venture capitalist investments Intel Capital
