>aka the seven dwarves by amazing coincidence I just opened Computer Weekly (UK mag) and they mention Snow White and the Seven Dwarves in the lead article - it's their 40th anniversary edition (I'd been in computing for about 18 months when I got the invite for a free subscription). Apparently there were only +- 1,200 computers in the UK in 1967 - most of those would have been pre- IBM 360. For this issue they've had readers vote the top IT Greats of all time:- bg makes #3 I was pleased to see that Ted Codd made #8 and that Dilbert gets an honorary mention but not so pleased to see Martha Lane Fox @ #10 whilst <s> Dennis Ritchie only made # 17 and Grace Hopper scraped in @ #20 (sic transit ...)
