More to the point, who of the original "Snow White and the Seven 
Dwarfs" still survives?  Snow White, of course, but how many of the 
seven little guys are still in business making general-purpose 
computers? (Burroughs, CDC, GE, Honeywell, NCR, RCA and Univac).   

And some others, are just a facade (Packard Bell) and not the 
original company. Or Westinghouse Digital.
