Interview with Paolo Cognetti
summary
A retrocomputing corner displays about ten working early microcomputers including Altair, the TRS-80, Apple II and Commodore PET, on loan from the Retrocomputing Club Italia. A coordinated 30-author book recounts Italian microcomputer history from 1977–87 for general readers, reassigning credit to lesser-known figures (notably claiming Federico Fagin invented the microprocessor and crediting Bill English with the 1962 mouse) and is already being presented in Cosenza, Bari and Rome.
