Never heard of it, but I am curious since you said "boom".

And "computer".

From what I saw it's about the first designs of the computers and how they took off to become what they are today. While I don't think it's a documentary but more based on the life of the guys/company involved still looks cool. Any show where there is someone sitting behind a PCB held up by alligator clips and hold a soldering iron makes me want to watch :-)
