Sphere Computer

My article may seem less that neutral, however, it is based on my experience. I graduated from Syracuse University with a degree in Math and Science in 1963. I work at GE from 1964 to 1967. In 1968 started working at the Upstate Medical Center in Syracuse, NY. Six months later I was promoted to Manager of Research Computing. I have over 45 years of experience in all phases computer systems and applications, both hardware and software. I wrote the hardware device drivers plus disk operating system for SEL 810 A Minicomputers in 1968. I believe that Bill Gates was probably in Junior High at the time.

I was back in the early 1970's aware of all new computers that came onto the market. I programmed IBM 7094, GE 635, various minicomputers such as IBM model 11, DEC 8, Dec 11, SEL 810's. I have owned and used TRS-80's. Tandy Model 2, Tandy Model 6000, and several Windows Personal Computers.

The point I was trying to make in the article was that the Sphere I was truly the first useful Micro Computer that came to market. It has not received the Historical credit it deserves for that. I have nothing to gain by my testimony. I am now 72 and have been retired the past 5 years. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.58.75.222 (talk) 06:15, 24 February 2013 (UTC)

The Tea Leaf - Issue Seven (special Birthday recap)

A celebratory cupcake from the Teahouse Birthday Badge

It's been a full year since the Teahouse opened, and as we're reflecting on what's been accomplished, we wanted to celebrate with you.

Teahouse guests and hosts are sharing their stories in a new blog post about the project.

1 year statistics for Teahouse visitors compared to invited non-visitors from the pilot:

Metric Control group Teahouse group Contrast
Average retention (weeks with at least 1 edit) 5.02 weeks 8.57 weeks 1.7x retention
Average number of articles edited 58.7 articles 116.9 edits 2.0x articles edited
Average talk page edits 36.5 edits 85.6 edits 2.4x talk page edits
Average article space edits 129.6 edits 360.4 edits 2.8x article edits
Average total edits (all namespaces) 182.1 edits 532.4 edits 2.9x total edits

Over the past year almost 2000 questions have been asked and answered, 669 editors have introduced themselves, 1670 guests have been served, 867 experienced Wikipedians have participated in the project, and 137 have served as hosts. Read more project analysis in our CSCW 2013 paper

Last month January was our most active month so far! 78 profiles were created, 46 active hosts answered 263 questions, and 11 new hosts joined the project.

Come by the Teahouse to share a cup of tea and enjoy a Birthday Cupcake! Happy Birthday to the Teahouse and thank you for a year's worth of interest and support :-)
