From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: dave at horsfall.org (Dave Horsfall) Date: Sun, 14 Jul 2019 15:55:21 +1000 (EST) Subject: [COFF] Happy birthday, Jay W. Forrester and 386BSD! Message-ID: A computer pioneer, he is credited with the invention of core memory; fascinating stuff, when you realise that a "read" involves a couple of write cycles :-) Sense windings, etc... And 386BSD was released on this day in 1992, when William and Lynne Jolitz started the Open Source movement; well, that's what my notes say, and corrections are welcome (I know that Gilmore likes to take credit for just about everything). -- Dave
