Yes, it was a touching story. I do remeber Percom, as they seemed to be committed
to both S-100 and SS-50 busses. I have a Percom prototype board if I not
mistaken.
I'll have to dig up the particulars.

Hello all,
I was bidding on a Percom S-100 cassette interface on a nameless auction
site :-), and I was contacted by someone who wanted to know what my interest
in the board was. I replied, and as it turns out, the "someone" was the
daughter of Percom's founder!

That was an interesting read Rich. Thank you for posting it. It is a bit
touching given Margo's closeness to the whole history of Percom, but more
importantly, gives a strong message of what it takes and what it's like to
pursue and achieve one's dream. Hard work, motivation and the brains to tap
the correct opportunity.
Regards, Chris
