In the days before the Internet, a new episode of Computer Chronicles was a big deal to a young me. It was the only source of personal computing news at the time besides going to the library once a month to read the new magazines.

Fun moment in retrospect: Someone from Blizzard demoed a preview of Diablo on the show. In the live demo, the first monster he kills drops a Book of Identify (permanent ability). Before the game shipped, they removed that item and made buying and carrying Scrolls of Identify (consumable) into a rather annoying gameplay mechanic.
