Well no matter what we may think about the Intel behemoth now, one can't
deny Moore's accomplishments. From his time with Shockley, the Fairchild
start-up by Shockleys "the traitorist eight", and then founding Intel with
Noyce and Graves.
What I was surprised at, was the date of the "Electronics" issue. I didn't
know they went back that far. I have about 20 issues from 80 and 83 including
the massive April 80 'Special Commemortive Issue". I value them for
resources more than my 80-83 Bytes.
Talk about elitist !

Makes me wonder if I could be prosecuted just for having them. :^)
