Part 1: John Mauchly at 1977 Trenton Computer Festival

John Mauchly, as a physics professor at the University of Pennsylvania, co-invented ENIAC with J. Presper Eckert during World War II. ENIAC was the world's first all-electronic, general-purpose, stored-program computer. This is part 1 of his keynote at the 1977 Trenton Computer Festival. The introduction is by Claude Kagan. There are also comments by Kay Mauchly, who was an ENIAC programmer. Video has a few choppy spots. Special thanks to TCF founders Al Katz and Sol Libes for permission to post this.
