Vintage computers inspire next generation of scientists
- CodeMage 16y agoThe title is linkbait. The article is about Britain's first Vintage Computer Festival. The title is based on a quote: Andy Clark, a director and trustee of the National Museum of Computing, said the vintage machines helped to generate interest in technology: "People come along, look at them, get engaged and interested, and that's our next generation of computer scientists". While the article is mildly interesting, the title is misleading.
