I don't mind dramatization, but 4.5h seems quite steep for such a simple video that seems like it could be covered in a 20m Youtube video. Do you have a rough review if you ended up watching more of it if it's just really dragged on or actually contains a lot of content?

I actually found it quite appropriate, specially after it picked up pace from the end of the first episode... didn't feel at all like it was dragging on.

If you just want the tech stuff, it's very sparse but I greatly enjoyed the connection between the two protagonists.

It was also a nice way of teaching my wife about what the world of computers was like in the 90's.
