Permalink Reply by davekill on February 10, 2013 at 12:46am Thanks for the link to the PBS American Experience documentary, Silicon Valley Chapter 1. This program explores Robert Noyce's achievements at Fairchild semiconductor and the forming of Intel but not much beyond. It was outstanding and I hope there will be a Chapter 2.
If your interested in the earliest history of our modern day tech, I can recommend 'Crystal Fire: The Birth of the Information Age'.
