Re: Tek History book
I don't think any have been published since the 40th. Yes, each Sales guy was given a copy of the book, and then was able to order more to give away to his favorite customers. I ordered a whole box of

Re: Tek History book
If you worked at Tek during the 'good' years (say the late 60's) as I did, you know how much the company changed since then, often in ways that made it a much less pleasant and rewarding place to
