   From http://www.computerhistory.org/events/u ... generation --   
      
   The documentary "Growing the 8 Bit Generation," produced by the 8bit   
   Generation Project, focuses on the Commodore 64's role in the home computer   
   explosion and the personal computer revolution. The movie features   
   never-before-seen interviews with Jack and    
   Leonard Tramiel, Chuck Peddle, Al Charpentier, Bil Herd, Michael Tomczyk, Dave   
   Rolfe, Richard Garriot, Jeff Minter, and Andy Finkel, as well as Steve   
   Wozniak, Nigel Searle, John Grant, Nolan Bushnell, Al Alcorn, and Joe Decuir.    
      
   The 8bit Generation Project is a labor of love and takes its name from the   
   8-bit microprocessor popular in machines from the early 1970s to the end of   
   the 1980s. The 8-bit generation was characterized by young entrepreneurs,   
   engineers, visionaries,    
   dreamers, and geniuses who wanted to change their lives and ended up changing   
   the world.
