An Intermetrics alum
I just was browsing some search terms, and came across an entry for Intermetrics, a company I worked at many, many moons ago. Intermetrics, or I2 as it was known, was a wonderful place to work--even if I had missed the very early glory days (pre-1980). Intermetrics was a software tools company; it was founded by five guys from MIT; see Tony Flanders' history for the early days. I spent 10 years there (from '83 to '94) in a variety of tech jobs...I did system admin in CFD for the first half ( RSX and VMS) and did tech peripheral in SPD (QA/tech support/tech writing) the second half before moving to Pittsburgh (and the web) in '94. After I left, I2 was acquired like 80 bazillion times; it's not really recognizable any more. But the I2 times were good enough that there is an ex-I2 mailing list for all the folks with (mostly) fond memories of their time there. If you're a former I2 bud, please do !
