I agree. Computing history is implicit in some of the configuration and
learning curve issues we're having to deal with as newbies; knowing computing

Besides, many things, like the Xerox PARC deal, are just plain interesting.
If it wasn't for the stupidity of Xerox execs we would be paying them royalty
money. -Gary-
