>Judging from the level of disagreement on many recent topics, it appears

>I would like to solicit your help. As part of my research for a project
>that will benefit this Classic Computer Community, I am trying to assemble
>an exhaustive database of companies who manufactured what is now classic
>computer hardware and software. For the moment, I am focusing only on
>hardware. Software will be the next project.
>
>I am seeking to bring together a small part of your collective knowledge and
>expertise. I have built a simple web page that will collect the names of
>manufacturers and products.
>
>Please go to http://gatekeeper.evocative.com:8080/research and dump your
>brain! All manufacturers and products are fair game, and in fact, the more
>obscure the better. Please accept my apologies in advance for the
>simplistic (crude) interface, but this is simply a data collection exercise
>and I did not waste much time on flourish.
>
>When the project is complete, this data will be cleaned up and made
>available to anyone who cares to have it. This data will not be sold, it
>will be free. The site does not collect any personal information; your
>submissions are completely anonymous.
>
>Thanks in advance for your help!
