For those who saw me pose the question below on Twitter: Apologies. I would very much appreciate the community’s advice on references to the history of computing in the Middle East, especially: the 1970s and 1980s; the introduction of personal computing; and Arabic language capabilities. Thanks as ever, David +++++++++++++++ David C. Brock dcb@dcbrock.net 40 Russell Street, Greenfield, MA 01301 Mobile: 413-522-3578 Skype: dcbrock Twitter: @dcbrock
