Not on tape, but you could look at "The Cartoon Guide to Computer Science" by Larry Gonick, Harper and Row, 1983, ISBN 0-06-460417-9. Funny and largely accurate.

Some of the best I've seen were in a Gandalf calendar 2-3 years ago. It has great drawings (communications related of course) of various situations. Worth seeking out - Nigel

There are many excellent cartoons in "Computers for Beginners" by Errol Selkirk (Unwin paperbacks, 1986) There is also "101 uses for a personal computer" but I don't have the exact reference here. ______________________________________________________________________________ Jim Underwood University of Technology, Sydney (jim@ultima.socs.uts.edu.au) PO Box 123, BROADWAY Systems Theorist N.S.W. 2007 School of Computing Sciences AUSTRALIA ______________________________________________________________________________
