Crap...died on my birthday too.

For some strange reason I always wanted to meet George Morrow...but
unfortunately that opportunity won't come...I'll have to try to get one
of his systems though.

Anyone know what he was doing (technology wise) in the 1990's? I thought
I remember him as a commentator on the PBS Computer Chronicles TV
Show...he was pretty good.

I also understand he never got fantastically wealthy off any of his
companies.
