I've just received my copy of a new BBC/Granta
book "Electronic Brains,
Stories from the dawn of the Computer Age", author Mike Hally.
ISBN 1 86207 663 4
I've not read it yet, but from a quick flip through it looks like an
interesting, non-technical, account of the early years of computers
in the USA, UK, Russia and Australia.
Just thought you might be interested...
Interest in classic/old computers seems to be entering the mainstream
these days.

This is a new "library" feature I'm adding to the VCF website. It
includes books, videos, and books on cassette, all on computer history
subjects. 99.9% link to the Amazon page where you can place an order for
convenience.
It still needs some better organization, and perhaps a search function
will come later. In the meantime, it's a great resource for finding a
huge selection of books on all manner of computer history. I think
interested parties will find it very extensive.
Suggestions always welcome.
