Ed Roberts - inventor of Altair 8800 died
The pioneer of the microcomputer has died, and I'm surprised it wasn't noted by someone here (at least a search did not reveal anything).
(Henry) Ed Roberts who launched the Altair 8800 kit in 1975 died on April 1 at the age of 68. I just read it in a recent edition of The Globe and Mail newspaper.

RIP 
Rest In Peace and thank you.
I still think that Altair was the best name for a computer ever.
Godspeed Good Sir.
