Three people have been inducted as Fellow Awards at the Computer History Museum. They are Jean Bartik, Robert Metcalfe and Linus Torvalds. I'm sure most of you know Robert Metcalfe as the one who invented ethernet and is now a VC and Linus Torvalds, the inventor of Linux. But I never heard of Jean Bartik, which apparently according to the Computer History Museum Fellow Awards web site is one of the first programmers of the groundbreaking ENIAC computing system in 1945.
Congratulations to Jean, Robert and Linus! I had the wonderful opportunity to visit the Computer History Museum and post photos of my trip there.
