Found Footage: Tom Servo's a Mac, and Crow's a PC

If you enjoyed Mystery Science Theater 3000 as much as I did (and still do), this clip from 1991 should warm your precious little heart. We find Servo having problems with his PC, and pining for the Mac that he used to have.

Bonus references to WordPerfect 5.1, Amiga, and autoexec.bat! And System 7? "It's coming, OK?!"

Hooray! MST! I'm one of the very few Australians who's ever heard of MST. I have to get my fix via Amazon. God bless region-free DVD players. Can someone tell me what episode this is from?

That's awesome. Thanks for the great host segment. :)

I'm a huge MST3k fan and am now a huge Cinematic Titanic and RiffTrax fan. Be sure to check out what the crew is doing these days.. it's just as much fun as MST3k was.
