>From ENIAC to Laptop: A 50th Birthday Salute to the Computer------------------------------------------------------------

On Monday, September 2 from 12 - 2pm EST, Sean Prpick, host and producer, 
offers listeners a light-hearted look at a half century of computing 
through music and interviews. He speaks to members of the original ENIAC 
design team and the founder of Canada's first computer museum. He also 
looks at the Canadian contribution to cinema's most sinister computer, 
HAL 9000, featured in 2001:A Space Odyssey. The special program also 
includes an eclectic blend of music with a computer flavor, including 
hits by Stan Rogers, Duran Duran, and the Berlin Philharmonic.


It's available across Canada, and to border states, on CBC AM stations.

Hope you enjoy it.
