"Morrow, who was 69, was a member of the Homebrew Computer Club, many
of the members of which became instrumental in pushing the concept
of the personal computer.
"pushing"?!? How about
"creating".
He formed a firm called Microstuf
Howzbout
"Thinker Toys", which later became "Morrow Designs" (a little
better known than "Microstuf"
and was responsible for the design
of the S100 bus."
SEVERAL people and companies involved.
At the Second West Coast Computer Faire, he and Howard Fullmer, his chief
engineer (also dead) presented a paper towards standardizing the bus.
Does ANYBODY have a copy of "Quotations from Chairman Morrow"?
even a xerox? text file?
