I've made a couple of edits with respect to your notes. One thing - according to the page you linked to, Amdahl "led the design of the IBM System/360 family". I've changed the article to reflect this, and I hope it's more accurate now. Thanks again for arranging such a cool event! Karae, thanks for the comment! I’ve made a couple of edits with respect to your notes.

One thing – according to the page you linked to, Amdahl “led the design of the IBM System/360 family”. I’ve changed the article to reflect this, and I hope it’s more accurate now.

Thanks again for arranging such a cool event!

I was the Exec Sponsor (first speaker of the night - if you remember me). Thanks for writing - we love the coverage as I continue to spread the word about CHM's exhibits and lectures. Two nits in your article: 1. Tedlow does not focus on "computer history", but rather "business history" 2. Gene Amdahl did not design the S360 - Gene was Fellow too - His bio: http://www.computerhistory.org/fellowawards/index.php?id=74 Bob Evans was the project lead for the IBM S360....also a Fellow. His bio: http://www.computerhistory.org/fellowawards/index.php?id=92 Thanks again for your time to write such a cool article. Great article.
