University users: Overview

The only universities other than Manchester and London with reasonable computing power were eight universities with KDF9 computers.

A second set of around ten universities had useful computers mainly Elliott 803s. An eight hour shift on an Elliott 803 was the equivalent to 5-10 minutes on Atlas. The rest had either no computer or something very modest.

This section gives some thumbnail sketches of, or links to, some of the users of the Chilton Atlas that illustrate the variety of the user base and supported universities.
