Bill Gates and the PDP

[johntk...@gmail.com]

Hi PDP fans - 

I can thoroughly recommend reading the Bill Gates autobiography "Source code".

Lots of stories of his time with the PDP-10. I didn't realize it played such an important role in his life.

Also, did you know he interviewed at DEC and was offered a job while still a student?

hi john, thanks for this note - looking like will read the autobio:O

funnily enough, related blog note from last week - https://statespace.dev/tops10-vms.html

'showstopper' is a whole hearted recommendation - the relationship between cutler and gates is fascinating

cheers,
