Computers

Why another web page about computers and operating systems? Google and the Open Directory Project provide many links, yet I feel that is not enough. My main interests are history and documentation/help. Too many sites I've linked to in the past have gone offline; many help sites don't address the questions that interest me. Furthermore, I am not particularly attached to one platform, operating system, etc; I am not here to act as an advocate; I can't claim to be unbiased, but I do my best.
