Title: The Centre for Computing History in Cambridge end September/
Post by: zapiy on August 27, 2015, 18:27:44 PM
Chris Wilkins just posted this on FB and gave me permission to post here..

If this happens and its on a free weekend for me. I will be attending.. Would be goon to arrange to meet a few RVG'ers at the same time.

QuoteAs you may recall, the next book in the 'History' series (after US Gold) is going to be on the Oliver Twins.

We are looking to do a launch event for the Kickstarter to fund the print of the book at the 'The Centre for Computing History' in Cambridge end of September/early October. The Oliver's will be present plus hopefully the Darling brothers and others who contributed to the success of the Twins plus others linked to our retro gaming hobby. There will be gaming, competitions, talks, beer (hopefully), curry and more gaming.

In the planning stage - I am very excited about this.
