I am writing an educational book about the invention of the videotape
machine and
subsequent evolution of nonlinear edit systems on desktop computers.
In order to background the reader properly, I am including material
on the development of
not only the GUI by companies like Xerox but also microprocessors and
PC's by companies
and people like MOS, Motorola, DG, Intel, Faggin, De Castro, Chuck
Peddle and Bill
Mensche. I have tried without luck to contact Mr Peddle and wish to
do so.
I believe Mr Peddle will be attending, Vintage Computer Festival East
4.0 this June
Maybe you are too?

If you are going I am looking to convey my interest in making contact
with him,
to make sure the facts in my book are fair and accurate.
I would love to attend but I am in Sydney, Australia.
I am more than happy to give fair credit in the published work to
ClassicCMP.
Thanks
