What’s the year of this presentation? There’s 1973 on the slide. Is this possible? It looks like a joke but I’m not sure.

It's after the year 2000 - definitely a joke on Bret's part. He is very big on keeping computer history alive and contextualizing things.

You're meant to pretend Bret is giving the presentation in 1973; e.g. his comment about "but there's no way Intel will corner the market and stifle innovation, right?"
