SiliconValleyWatcher.com: A tribute to one of Silicon Valley's most influential and forgotten researchers at Xerox Parc event


SiliconValleyWatcher.com: A tribute to one of Silicon Valley's most influential and forgotten researchers at Xerox Parc event: "The place to be Wednesday evening was at Xerox PARC, for a reunion of the seminal Homebrew Computer Club and a tribute to a man that history has tried to forget, or at least relegate to a minor role: Doug Engelbart.

Mr Engelbart is usually remembered simply as the inventor of the computer mouse. But dozens of computer pioneers stood up Wednesday to acknowledge his much larger role, as one of the most profound and influential thinkers of their time. "
