Ross Perot was was the Honor Board Chairman at the Naval Academy when he graduated in 1954. EDS has been providing data admin services to the Navy since he founded the company. Those ventures are what made him the billions to fund his presidential campaign. EDS is lashed to the Navy with steel wires.
- michaelhalligan 16y agoRoss had already left EDS before I started there, and I started there a lifetime ago, though I've met both Ross Sr. & Jr. through my father's work at Perot Systems (now part of Dell). When I was a 14 year old kid interning there, I didn't quite understand why people paid EDS $500/hour to do IT work. Now that I'm a 31 year old entrepreneur, I now understand why people pay EDS $500/hour to do IT work. In the truest sense of the term, it's ignorance.
