We watched the pilot for Max Headroom last night. I'd forgotten about how innovative the show was using simulated computer graphics of the time. I was amused, however, that Max was done as a prosthetic addition because they couldn't simulate the human face at the time; and the remark by the boy genius that animating a whole body would take "millions of bytes of computer power".

And in the future, no computer will have that much.

Yeah, that is amusing. It still holds up pretty well, after all these years ...
