Triumph of the Nerds
Just finished watching this documentary from 1996. Very interesting to see where all this stuff came from right before the internet took off. The doc was done in 3 episodes on PBS and have been nicely compiled into a playlist of 18 segments on youtube.
I would love to see a real follow-up to this ( apparently there was a sequel 2 years later about the internet, but I think much more has happened)
Here is the wikipedia article on it.
