    Welcome to DECconnection.org, a website 
	established for the benefit of former Digital Equipment Corporation employees and contractors who 
	would like to stay connected with former colleagues who value Digital's 
	cultural, technical and management legacies. 
    This website is dedicated to the memory of our 
	founder and mentor extraordinaire, Ken Olsen, and to preserving and enhancing what we all 
	feel made Digital a unique place to work. We strive to do this by fostering 
	connectivity and communication among members of the Digital "family". Our 
	monthly newsletter, DEC Connection News-At-Glance, highlights face-to-face 
	events, newsbytes of former employees, and programs and announcements of 
	interest to all members. Since
90% of our members are now retired from full-time employment, we have
increased our focus on social events and zoom seminars, and decreased
or eliminated activities such as professional networking.  We're still into DEC nostalgia and preserving Ken's legacy.  
    The DEC Connection Board of Directors 
	continues to reach out to DEC employees to provide activities and forums of 
	interest to the Digital community. This website belongs to its members and 
	exists to help the Digital family stay connected. We hope you will choose to 
	Join Us and participate in our meetings and events. By keeping in touch, 
	both in person and online, we hope to sustain Ken's legacy well into the 
	future, help fellow members and have fun along the way. So please explore 
	what this site offers, and of course let us know how it can better serve 
	your interests.  You can meet our Board of Directors on our Contact Us 
	page.  Thank you for visiting
	www.decconnection.org.  
    Nancy Kilty, DEC Connection Board of Directors
