Hi,
There's an interesting interview with Heinz Zemanek
at Telepolis (a german net-magazine). The article
is in German, but I guess you all have Babelfish
as hotkey :)

There's also a picture of the Mailüfterl (Bavarian for
a soft brise in may). FYI, the Mailüftern was the worlds
first transistorized computer (Well, personaly I still
go for the SIEMENS 2002, since both came to life with
only a few weeks difference, but while the Mailüfterl
was a single instance machine build at the Vienna Univ,
the 2002 was already a production machine, build in
'large' quantities - BTW: all this happened when Tubes
still ruled the computer bussines and paralell to the
Whirlwind (check the name :))
Gruss
H.
