Re: Hot Pies

Marchants...a voice from the past. And Brunsvigas. I remember using them in 6th form statistics. It was kind of having a big geek secret. Working out square roots (for standard deviations) using Newton's method.

At university there was a 4-function electronic calculator. Chained to the desk.

Ten years later, working with a small rack containing 3 16 bit microprocessors and high speed interconnects.

And you know what?

None of them had failed keyboards or overheating batteries.
