Hi,
It is with great sadness that I report the death of fellow
collector of old computer systems Alf Jacob Munthe, of the
little town of Minnesund in Norway.
Although it was expected, it still came too soon. The fatal
desease he was fighting would win eventually, and it did. I
hope he now enjoys endless being without the pain that kept
torturing him.
Alf Jacob contacted me last year, after a posting from Dave
Dunfield on this list, regarding taking care of his babies,
that being a set of mint-condition IMSAI systems. This did
require several months of co-ordinating, but they are finally
on their way to my place, where they will kept in the same
way he cared for them.
I wish his wife all the strength in dealing with his passing.
Let this not start another discussion on wills and such.. just
make sure you got that covered BEFORE it's needed.
With kindest regards,
Fred
