I saw this video at HP in 1992 or 1993 or so called HP 1995

I was 13 or 14 at the time and to me it was a bit of a "wow" moment. Not because I related to the topic (mostly this was manufacturing) but because of the interfaces and the speed of information dispersal. I remember seeing other concept videos (the famous AT&T ones, Apple's, Adobe, etc) and they were likewise inspiring.

I know reality is often the best thing to market, and Apple and the like have made reality as inspiring as a far future concept lately.

But concept videos from the late 80's -> mid 90's had a huge impact on why I'm in technology today.
