Hello all.
If you're not aware of this, Don Tarbell, of the famous Tarbell Cassette
standard, died earlier this year. Someone posted about this on the list
around the time he passed on.
I'd like to display an "obituary" at the Vintage Computer Festival. I'll
give a free pass to this (or a future) Vintage Computer Festival and a VCF
t-shirt to anyone who wants to write up an obituary for Mr. Tarbell.
Ideally, the write-up should include his contributions to the world of
computing, including a good historical account of his cassette standard
and other technical acheivements, as well as what companies he founded,
etc. The requisite obituary information such as date of birth/death,
hometown, etc. should also be included.
I would need to have this by the 20th or so. Please contact me by private
e-mail if you are interested. Thanks!
