The Get Lamp documentary looks awesome. It's CC licensed so you can watch it for free, but they also have some physical DVD copies left with all the extras.
It is awesome. As is his BBS documentary. Speaking of monetizing physical media, my wife went to some effort and expense to get me a personally signed copy of the BBS documentary for Fathers Day a long time ago, that was really cool.
As a disclaimer, I'm a financial backer of the upcoming 6502 documentary, looking forward to it.
It's more a series of interviews than a true documentary but, that quibble aside, it's a great window into a world that really hasn't been well documented otherwise because it happened outside of the main thread of the Internet's evolution. I see one (self-published) book on Amazon about BBSs but there really isn't much out there.
Come on Jason. With a bigger budget you would probably have done things a bit differently. But as I said, it's a well done (and appreciated) look into a neglected area of computing history. And frankly the interviews are probably the most important thing. I'm not being critical.
