Subject: Cambridge (the UK one! :) computer companies
Sinclair and Torch from personal experience I'm not sure who was
really active
in this region, and know basically nothing of what went on in the
60's and 70's
around here. I expect some of you UK guys know the history of the British
computing scene pretty well though.
3 more spring to mind - Enterprise, Camputers and Newbury Labs all had
facilities in Cambridge (the Silicon Fen IIRC :). You've got a lot of
research to do though - I've been told by someone who used to work at
Intelligent Software (creators of the Enterprise) AND Newbury that there
were 142 computer related companies in Cambridge when he left IS!
cheers
