I read an
article today in 'New Scientist' entitled 'Innovation:
Classic computers on the danger list' with Tom Simonite writing:
"Pretty much every adult alive today has seen computers change the
world, but we are doing precious little to celebrate the influence
of the computers and software that created our society." Indeed!
Are we failing to preserve the earliest part of microcomputing
history? Will classiccmp.org discuss early ucomputers in 5 yrs., 10
yrs.?
I like to think us fresh-faced young whippersnappers will carry the
torch, once we're off everybody's lawn. ;-)
