speak for the 60's, but in the early 70's Samsonite (yes, the suitcase
people) had a plant in Englewood making an 18 bit minicomputer. They
called the company Electronic Processors, Inc. Colorado is more of a
semiconductor fabrication area, really... Though I'm sure most people
on this list will recognize Otrona...
Cool! Singer also made computers in the early 70s. I have a bare PCB cut
in half with a Singer label on it. I wonder if any complete machines
survived?
Do you have any Samsonite computers, Will?
