It might have been Simon of Antioch, who looked remarkable similar from a distance.

The Sinvlair ZX80 preceded the IBM PC by a > year, but neither was the first of its kind. First recognisable PC was made by Wang in the early 70s - by this I mean a desktop machine with monitor and a way of loading programs - in this case, a cassette drive. So, the Yanks have that one. > > and internet right here on American shores. But it was a Brit. who came up with a way to make the Internet usable by anyone other than geeks and scientists. > > There are always more foreigners wanting to come to America and see what > > is what than there are Americans who have had enough and want to move out. > > I wonder why that is? > > Lots of empty space I'd say it was education - the average European has a better standard and better spread of educational knowledge than the average Yank. A large proportion of Yanks wouldn't be able to place their own state on a map, let alone know where Stockholm was, for example. -- SteveH |
