Just now watching the Live Stream (thanks to Ron Newman) wondering why
I ever bother to try to attend in person!
And kicking myself (again) for discarding the MANIAC manual I
inherited when I came to the lab in 1980...
And a link to Brower's book "The Starship and The Canoe" describing
George's very grounded and clever way of being a "rebellious teen".
I read his book (Turing's Cathedral), which was quite interesting and
I definitely want to hear his talk. The book isn't really the history
of the development of computers in general but more the history of
that part of the development of computers most closely associated with
the work of von Neumann.
