Didn't know he was still alive - 95; not a bad innings.
I also didn't know he was the father of Fern Britton.
Let's hope they show a bit of Robin's Nest in his honour.Comment

Yes, that's the one who was always on Pebble Mill. Along with Johnny Dankworth and Cleo Laine.Originally posted by DoctorStrangelove View PostComment

I thought Ram Dass was a bit of advice from a very busy German. Ho hum.The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that he didn't existComment

did we miss the father of the 6502?
Personal computer CPU pioneer Chuck Peddle dies at 82 | Engadget
Chuck Peddle, one of the most important engineers of the early home computing era, has died from pancreatic cancer at the age of 82. He's best known as the lead designer for MOS Technology's 6502, a low-cost processor (just $25 in 1975) that found its way into first-wave home computers like the Apple II and Commodore PET. Variants of that core design found their way into influential consoles like the Atari 2600 and NES. If you have nostalgia for the days when 8-bit computers were cutting edge, you likely owe a debt of gratitude to Peddle.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment
