Gordon was one of the founders of Encore Computer and my first encounter was in Mass at the point Hydra, Resolution, Foundation and the other component company acquisitions were melding together. I remember being gob smacked by Gordon having a little Vax as his PC and only later came the "well of course he does" realization. He was keen for us to get on to Arpanet and that happened before the end of 1984.
