Hi Leif,

I'd be interested in a book as well.

Hey folks,

Our friend Zbigniew Stachniak at the York University Computer Museum
co-authored a book on the history of computing in Canada.  I'm
interested in one but they are currently out of print.  More can be
ordered, but Zbigniew wants to know if there is interest from TPUG and
the Commodore community, so he can order sufficient copies.

Here are the details:
 z. Stachniak and S. Campbell. Computing in Canada: Building a Digital
Future".
 Published by Canada Science and Technology Museum, Ottawa, Transformation
 Series 17, 2009.
 http://www.sciencetech.technomuses.ca/english/about/tra17e.cfm
 http://www.sciencetech.technomuses.ca/english/about/trans_series.cfm

The whole series sounds pretty fascinating, but expensive to get the
whole thing!  Anyway, please let me know if you would like a copy -
according to the site they're $20.

Regards,
Leif
