UK Lab Responsible for VNC To Close

Posted by chrisd on from the we-have-the-way-in dept.

NexUK writes "Guardian Online has an article about the imminent closure of the UK based AT&T lab , the place that brought us VNC, the popular desktop remote control system. The article talks about a nice "Toys" budget where the employees could buy gadgets without prior authorization." AT&T Strikes again, I'm surprised they haven't bought PARC and closed it down too.

    "UK Lab Responsible for VNC To Close" is lame.
    A better header would be "AT&T Kills Lab that Created VNC".

    The "UK Lab" is responsible for VNC, not for its closure. AT&T is responsible for closing the lab.
