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 
history helps to explain some otherwise odd and confusing things in Linux.  
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-

 hearing people reminisce about the old days of UNIX/Linux and their
