Last year, The Computer Museum History Center in Mountain View, California
received four tractor trailer loads filled with Digital artifacts -- 90,000
pounds of machines, tape drives, disk drives, manuals, line printers,
software, museum displays, etc. It has taken many months to sort it all
out, but it is now ready to be shared with those of us who care about
Digital and all that was accomplished there.
The Digital team that works with the Museum is inviting us to join them on
Saturday, June 16th for a session in which some of the people who helped
make Digital's history will share their recollections and perspectives.
We will also be able to participate by sharing our own memories and
memorabilia. A substantial portion of the Museum's Digital collection will
be on display.
There will be informal get-togethers on Friday evening, the program will
take place on Saturday and, if there's sufficient interest, there will be a
trip to the wine country on Sunday.
You'll enjoy talking about Digital's glorious past with Gordon Bell, Grant
Saviers, Ed Kramer, Barry Cioffi, Richy Lary, Dick Clayton, Stan Olsen,
Irwin "Jake" Jacobs and scores of other Digital executives who shook the
computer earth for three incredible decades.
DATE: Saturday, June 16
PLACE: The Computer Museum History Center
Moffett Field
Mountain View, California
For detailed information, write to Karen Mathews, Executive Vice President
of the Museum, at mathews@computerhistory.org.
