The Dallas Ft. Worth UNIX Users Group
will be highlighting the 50th anniversary on October 10,
November 14, and maybe in December.
http://www.dfwuug.org/wiki/Main/Welcome

I will be presenting about the early history next week
and then about BSD-specific history in November.

Any of you in the DFW area? Any suggestions on anyone local to invite? I 
am also looking for anyone local who can display old hardware or 
materials at the event. I only have some old books and training 
materials from 1980's.

Does anyone have scanned copies of early Lions commentary? (Not the 2000 
printing, unless it looks identical, please let me know.)

I will try to share my slides to this list by end of this week. (I did 
look at an early draft of Warner's slides, but didn't look at his final 
slides nor watch his presentation yet. My presentation is from scratch 
for now.)

There's a larger version hiding 'behind' it.

There are very few 645 images. There's the large painting of a 645, which
for many years hung in the hallway on the 5th floor of Tech Sq:

No. The former was the BTL legal and patent department. The latter was
at AT&T (or perhaps Western Electric).

I seem to recall reading about one. And in:

  https://multicians.org/chrono.html

there's this entry: "08/65 GE 635 delivered to Project MAC". Clicking on the
'GE 635' link leads to "MIT's GE-635 system was installed on the ninth floor
of 545 Tech Square in 1965, and used to support a simulated 645 until the real
hardware was delivered."
