NYT: ‘C. Gordon Bell, Creator of a Personal Computer Prototype, Dies at 89’
From The Times’s obit:
“His main contribution was his vision of the future,” said David Cutler, a senior technical fellow at the Microsoft Research Lab and a leading software engineer, who worked with Mr. Bell at both Digital and Microsoft. “He always had a vision of where computing was going to go. He helped make computing much more widespread and more personal.”
