Thanks to Jeff Pitt for the latest instalment of our series of ANZ DP articles featuring NSW this time
Hi again folks - I think the efforts of quite a few contributors have managed to piece together a pretty comprehensive coverage of the NSW computerisation story from the early days in 1960s up to where we are today.
I know from many comments throughout the compiling of the story that this period in the careers of each was one of challenge but satisfaction in being in a leading edge organisation in a "new industry".
Sadly, many of our original colleagues have passed on, and many others left ANZ, and many have now retired. And you will all have seen that Dick Milnthorpe also died lately after being a prime urger on this story-telling. But I am sure all of us look back on our time and role at ANZ Emanza Centre at North Sydney as an important part of our life experiences. I certainly enjoyed that part of my career which allowed me to visit North Sydney on many occasions over the years; firstly in new systems implementations when I was at South Yarra, and secondly in my final role in Payments with Warren Hadley and the TPC management.
I have done a detailed review of the attached story after adding in more contributions, with a bit of word-smithing, adding in a few more names suggested, 3 Addendums of interesting info from Ray Atchison, and some comments and pictures from Ian Millard.
I sent to ANZROC NSW for their publication in early November (which just happened today) , and will now have it filed in the ANZROC Archives thru Eamon with the previously published WA and SA stories.
Once again, thanks for all your efforts and any further comments most welcome.........cheers, Jeff
PS The Tas story is with their ANZROC Committee for review, and the QLD story awaits input from Ian Millard.
