Yeah. I saw his update from Memorial Day weekend where he said he
wasn't feeling well. On top of everything else, sounded like it was
close, and it was.
Since I got a KIM-1 at VCF East and since Bob wasn't there, I made a
point of ordering some accessories from Bob back in April. Doubly
glad I did.
Just letting
everyone know that Bob Applegate passed away a few days ago.
He had been battling cancer for some time. He was involved with vintage
computing for some time. Here is his website: http://www.corshamtech.com/

Bob made great stuff. I bought a few KIM boards off him a few weeks back. He
said the treatment wasn't going well, and it didn't seem like it would be long.
I'm glad he's at peace.
Indeed.
