The Most Popular WBUR Stories Of 2009

At about 2:40 this afternoon (Wednesday)on your OBIT segment, you read an E-mail sent from a person describing someone very close to him that died recently and who built the Recomp computer. The ‘caller’wondered how famous his friend would have been if the computer had not been taken over by the military for missle use. Back in the early 60′s, I was living in California and worked for an aircraft company that was building a small commercial computer called “The Recomp-II Computer” which might have been the same computer, and would like to find out more about its builder. Is there any information you could provide that would allow me to contact the ‘caller’?
