(saw it on a2central.com)That really is pretty cool... especially the job he did of sychronizing the text with the music. I also like how the camera pulls back at the end as the computer lists the program... sort of creepy, like the computer is operating itself (or maybe I've just seen too many 1970's tech-paranoia sci-fi b-movies).
Of course, for the entire course of the video, it _could_ be operating itself. All it takes is a time delay loop and using the LIST statement from within the program. ;-) It would be tempting to recreate the program from the video of the listing, but it's still running after the resolution drops too low. -michael Music synthesis for 8-bit Apple II's!
