Blast from the past: The fourth system in the Station Computing programme was USAS, for supply accounting. I was the manager for USAS installation for a couple years, and then PM for SARO2 at Harrogate, then selling BAEMMA & RAMS, then LITS, next at Rolls-Royce. RAFSEE was a constant co-conspirator in those days. I enjoyed my time in Maastricht too. The new cable trays in the huts at Harrogate had to do zig zags under the corridor ceiling.

and it DID affect some major companies - but they (very wisely) kept their mouths firmly shut and just fixed it
