The Story of the Little Computer That Could!

 

The Rand Renfroe Gallery

Rand Renfroe was a software engineer at Hewlett-Packard’s Desktop Computer Division during the days of the HP 9825 and HP 9845 projects. In addition to writing software, Rand was a cartooning genius and created many hilarious drawings about the lot of the design engineer. Here in this gallery are a few of his creations to amuse you.
