Good links, thanks! The IBM was known as Phoenix https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoenix_(computer) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoenix_(computer) I spotted Maurice Wilkes (middle person in the top two of https://www.cs.kent.ac.uk/people/staff/pfl/photos/cambridge/ibm370-open.html https://www.cs.kent.ac.uk/people/staff/pfl/photos/cambridge/...) and I might be wrong about David Wheeler (top of https://www.cs.kent.ac.uk/people/staff/pfl/photos/cambridge/titan-close.html https://www.cs.kent.ac.uk/people/staff/pfl/photos/cambridge/...) and Roger Needham (top of https://www.cs.kent.ac.uk/people/staff/pfl/photos/cambridge/lab-people1.html https://www.cs.kent.ac.uk/people/staff/pfl/photos/cambridge/...)

  And I was delighted to discover that Phoenix, which happened to be my first ever email server, ended up here: http://www.computermuseum.org.uk/ http://www.computermuseum.org.uk/ Along with lots of other cool things including possibly the first Sun workstation. Worth a visit.
