This was a great video, i saw it YEARS ago. At leasy 5. I saw it again about 9 months ago and i was able not only Tivo it, but hack into my tivo to grab the video off of it. The f-ing video went out of sync, and i cant fix it. If anyone has this video, or knows where to get it, for the love of GOD TELL ME!.
This was a really awsome video about the life of hacking and phreaking.
It explained how Phone Phreaking got started, and how Capn Crunch helped devise the first bue box, and help'd Steve Wozniak start his life in hacking and phreaking. That eventually led to the Home Bew COmputer club breaking out like a bad rash, until the ALTAIR was created. The Woz and Steve Jobs created the first apple computers, which lead to the death of the HBCC, but the rise of computers, and people hacking them. Then it goes off into the whole kevin mitnick story...
For anyone thats a hard core phreak like me, the video has actuall footage of Blind Joe Engresia doing his thing... whistling into the phone and taking over the switchin equipment and making it his female of the dog species. Now friends, THATS dick waving rights! When you can whistle, and completely take utter control over the phone systems. That deserves an OWNED!
Read "The Secrets of The Little Blue Box" (easyly available on the net) Watch Hackers: Computer Outlaws, Takedown (aka Hackers 2) and The pirates of silicon valley. Those f-ers will school you in how all this computer stuff got started.

I really should watch more of these videos, I really think they're fascinating. Oh yeah, PoSV rocks!
On a slightly different note, cap'n crunch's whistle also disconnected people already talking on the phone. What some people would do is take the whistle to the airport, blow it near a row of phone booths, so everyone gets pissed at the same time
