This promotional tape for ReBoot was created in 1990 by The Hub (Ian Pearson, Gavin Blair, Phil Mitchell) and Limelight, the production company trying to get ReBoot off the ground. The Bob animation tests were created on Alias computer systems. The Megabyte/Hacker segment is from an even earlier animation test created on the same FGS system used to create Money For Nothing. This footage was transferred from D1 video tape (originally recorded from VHS) and restored by the ReBoot ReWind crew: Jacob Weldon, Raquel Lin, Mark Westhaver & Bryan Baker.

The Soviet Army Prepares for Action in Afghanistan is derived from four shots of a Soviet film called Heirs of Victory (1975) which commemorates the Allied triumph over fascism in World War II. The original film celebrates the military might of the USSR in images of explosions and armed men leaping through flames. These images are subjected to such thorough manipulation that they become patterns flickering like a multitude of abstract paintings, with digital smears standing in for squeegee marks and brush strokes. Slowly the shots become less abstract until they are completely recognizable, though still somehow rather surreal.
