I remember, about 25 years ago, we had a computer (green and white monitor, "proper" floppy disks) and we had a text programme called "Psychoanalysis" which was similar to this. I remember being totally stunned back then at how 'clever' the computer was.
The next big stun with computers for me was when I put in a CD and I could retrieve the CD details from the net. That is *so* cool.
