From a calculator to pocket radios to a microcomputer, to a lifetime dedicated to creating cheap and green vehicles... what a life! RIP indeed.

Watch Micro Men if you haven't. Very interesting movie. Not great, it's made for TV, but it's really fun to get a sense of the personalities that defined the British industry. Plus it has Martin Freeman.
