I was docent today. A moderate amount of visitors due to Labor Day weekend. Steve A. is docent tomorrow. It may have been sunny outside, but obviously our day was cloudy because of the news about Dan. A lone bright spot: Anthony S. dropped off those mysterious AT&T "Counterpoint" Unix workstations that I mentioned here a week or two ago. You'll recall that the person who donated them was a Bell Labs engineer. He said AT&T commissioned the design, about 1,000 were made, and most were bulldozed when the project got canceled. As far as he knows, the units donated to VCF today are probably the * last * ones around.
