Cookie Monster eats a computer in 1971

Well, actually, the Muppet character that devours the computer in this video is not the real Cookie Monster but a character that predates the cookie monster, that later evolved into cookie monster. Did that make your head spin? :)

Apparently Jim Henson and Frank Oz created the skit for an IBM training video and later performed a version on the Ed Sullivan Show.

Side note, did you know that there’s a Wikipedia entry about Cookie Monster? Neat.
