    I can’t even imagine the amount of story ideas they have at their disposal now. It really is ripe for a reboot or revival. They were dealing with compression and data efficiency, I think we have surpassed those issues.

    Since it ended we have had:

    • Crypto currency
    • NFTs
    • “AI”
    • VR
    • Wearables
    • Hardware shortages
    • etc

      To be fair, they did briefly cover VR on the show. Although they portrayed it as more of a fad and vaporware scam to defraud investors. As times gone on though it has stuck around. While not as much of a buzzword as it once was, it has cemented itself as legitimate tech.
