I was responsible for the vacuum system and a chunk of the packaging.
I worked on this too:

The buzz for the DSA is that it will revolutionize the way chromotagraphy is done.
Of course then they restructured me, right in the middle of the next TOF.

...and they laid off the tech people? Couldn't they at least have outsourced the CEO duties to India instead, or maybe automated their functions.

Perhaps replaced them with a small shell script?

I used to work for Chromatronics. Back in '68. Also on a blood test machine in the same era for a company in Richmond, Ca. whose name I forget. It was later sold to American Opitical.

Perkin-Elmer used to make computers. I never used that particular brand, but some of my co-workers who did called them "Pukin' Elmers".

When we wer running the prototype DSA we ran all sorts of things through it and discovered some amazing stuff. For instance, jsut about every dollar bill has traces of cocaine on it simply from transferred contact through couting machines and such.
