There where two plants one in Galway and something else at Clonmel I went to Galway loads of times. It was a big FA&T operation assembling 11/34's, 11/70's etc. VAX I suppose later. I think Clonmel was a software duplicating and packing operation for Europe. There was also a plant at Ayr in Scotland. The Scottish plant was called Silicon Glen and the Irish one Silicon Bog.
