I just learned from the April 2018 issue of QST that Robert T. "Doc"
Suding, W0LMD, has died. Suding cofounded and was chief design engineer of
The Digital Group, an early microcomputer company in Denver (1974-1979).

Here is a photo from bytecollector. I think it was Herb who showed one of
these at a VCF East, IIRC.

Back in the mid-seventies, when I was COB of "Personal Computer
Corporation", The Digital Group product line was our best seller for a
couple of years. Our staff often had one-on-one contact with Doc.
Suding. Those of us who knew him will miss him for sure...
Best,
Lyle

He was a good guy. He took the time to come out to Wisconsin back then
to demo his system for the Wisconsin Computer Society, back when the
Milwaukee Computer Store on North Avenue was the only one around.

There was one on Capitol near Maryland Avenue in Shorewood,
I know I went there in '75 or so?

Itty Bitty Computers
I worked there one summer.
The only place I ever saw an Apple I when it was for sale.
The Milwaukee Computer Store started before IBC's Milwaukee branch started.
Their original store was in Evanston, IL.

I was perhaps 13 at the time, living just down the street, learning
BASIC via ASR-33 dialup to UW-M from the high school with the Math Club.
I don't remember much of what they had on display. I remember
the place being kind of bare.
I routinely checked the garbage behind a TV repair shop next-door
to IBC perhaps, hoping for interesting electronic tidbits.
