​How to Send an Email in 1984

This segment originally aired on Thames TV program Database, which was aimed at early computer geeks and tech enthusiasts. Microcomputer user Julian Green shows how a Prestel (short for “press telephone”) user had to dial up the main Prestel system in order to connect, which he does with a rotary telephone. The early IP he uses is Micronet 800.
