Why this page should NOT be deleted

[edit]

ComputerLand is related to an important part of computing history: the retail and personalization of computers (Intel 8080 and later computers).

The article relates to the founder, who is likewise important for being one of the pioneers of personal computing, along with the other more well-known individuals, such as Michael Dell (Dell), Hewlett and Packard (Hewlett-Packard), Bill Gates, Steve Jobs.

The founder is cited on CompTIA's website in their section "Previously Inducted IT Hall of Fame Members". http://www.comptia.org/news/IT_HOF/HOF_Members.aspx

If you delete this article, you had better merge its contents into the article for the founder, Bill Millard. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rj.amdphreak (talkcontribs) 22:08, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

ComputerLand's website

[edit]

Why is ComputerLand's website still in service? And why is there not a notice on their site that points out that ComputerLand doesn't exist any more??
