This story of Carole Ely and Lore Harp reminded me a little of the (fictional) women in Halt and Catch Fire. Fantastic show. I wonder if Vector Graphic was an inspiration for the writers.

I was trying to remember this exact show to comment on... fantastic show, exciting and fairly accurate (to fiction terms) depiction of rise of PC & internet.

This is further afield, but it reminded me of the novel A Town Like Alice by Nevil Shute. The protagonist is an Englishwoman who inherits a legacy and uses it to open businesses that employ the women of an Australian outpost.
