A few slides from an IBM presentation in 1975 have surfaced. I first came across them at ISO50.
If only the lame PowerPoint presentations that so many of us are forced to sit through were this cool. I wish I could track down more information to go along with the slides, but at least we have these.
Square America has a large collection of the slides.
FDRY75
Unwilling Mascot
No one is sure where it came from our why it is here. Since showing up in January 2009, it hasn't left. It's only identification was a stenciled "FDRY Model 75" on the back of it's head. Obviously, it seemed like an auspicious sign so I have kept it around. I have found that giving it mundane tasks, like PHP and HTML coding will keep it busy. It never says a word... not even a beep, but has somehow managed to start a site of it's own. I can't guarantee it will make any sense or vouch for the content, but if you're feeling brave it can be found at fdry75.com.
