Is there a good online repository for technology geek ephemera from the 80s? I'm thinking of a teenage kid in his 80s bedroom holding a soldering iron, working on a hobby project next to his C64. Would love to see imagery, video, back issues of magazines, whatever.

The band
Teenage Head was HUGE when I was in highschool in the early 80's. Were they popular anywhere outside of Southern Ontario?

I'm a child of the '80s, and I loved the '80s. However, I didn't develop a sense of good taste until about 1994, and as a result my pop-culture radar is completely jammed with crappy cartoons designed to sell toys, cereal commercials, and Ewoks. Can you recommend
totally awesome movies/TV shows/etc. that will satisfy my '80s nostalgia, but are good enough to watch today?

I am looking for a certain children's tv program which ran on an unknown channel in the New York area around 1984 and probably elsewhere.

Back in the 1980s on Nickelodeon, a pair of cartoons -
The Little Prince and
Belle and Sebastian - that ran back to back (at least, in memory). I'm not sure either ever went to sindication in any meaningful way, so how am I supposed to get my hands on them?
