Then you probably remember Jim Butterfield, who was a regular on TVO back then. I knew him from work at CNCP Telecommunications. By 1983, I had my own computer, an IMSAI 8080, for 7 years and worked as a computer tech on the old "mini" computers, for 6. Incidentally, a show I used to watch was "The Computer Chronicles" on PBS. Gary Killdall, the creator of CP/M, was a regular on that show. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Butterfield https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IMSAI_8080 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gary_Kildall https://www.youtube.com/user/ComputerChroniclesYT --- Talk Mailing List [email protected] https://gtalug.org/mailman/listinfo/talk
