New York Times: Adam Osborne dies

John Markoff has an obituary for computer pioneer Adam Osborne.

I never met Adam nor did I ever own an Osborne computer — but I was in awe at Osborne’s booth at the West Coast Computer Faire — and I consumed the books produced by his earlier book publishing venture.

Osborne sold his publishing company in 1979 and used the proceeds to help fund Osborne Computer.
