Thacker) Organization: AT&T Bell Laboratories Lines: 8 Approved: military@att.att.com From: rds@bksmel.oz.au (Robert D Small) A recent thread discussed the above. Neville Shute's biography _Slide Rule_ includes the period when he was involved with the design and construction of the R100. It's a long time since I last read it (and no longer have it) and found it most interesting.
