Appearance by hacker in the swedish news and television, 1988-89.

This topic is mainly aimed towards the swedish audience who might know, although i'm aware that there might be other people around here which might know aswell. As you might or might not know, a wellknown swedish C64 user (which we can call Erik XIV) appeared in Datormagazin, the evening newspapers and on the swedish television during the swedish VISA-scandal which basically took place in 1989.

I remember seeing the spot on the telly - but I can't remember what the program was called, nor what the short interview contained - so I have two questions:

1) What was the program? Did he appear at more than one program? Do anybody have a videocapture of this show?

2) In the program, Erik XIV downloaded and ran an intro or a demo on his C64 which I remember beeing impressed by. What was the intro or demo he ran?

Thanks in advance.

Bit För Bit, was that the TV-show where they showed demos (I only remember Amiga demos, but perhaps C64 aswell)?

-edit- Yes it was!

Just a thought: What does Karl XII think of this old material getting digged out of the archives and possibly getting posted on internet?
