Thanks for another invaluable historical document. Enjoyed it a lot as usual. (BTW: Beautiful ending music!)

[@ComputerHistoryArchivesProject]

Hi Walter, thank you very much. Ending music is called "Stranger Danger," nice music. ~ Victor, CHAP

[@ghydda]

Hi Victor, could you give another hint to the music, Stranger Danger is too common a search term to yield a good hit on Google.

My dad worked at a company with the same name in dunstable - England. But they did actual metal engineering.

[@ComputerHistoryArchivesProject]

Hi Eliot, that is quite interesting. What years? - I know that in 1946 The "Production Engineering Research Association" was formed in the UK to support British manufacturing industry. I wonder if this is what you refer to. It is probably not the same as the U.S. company though.
