Jack Schofield, Guardian's Ask Jack tech columnist, dies at 72 | Media | The Guardian
Paper’s editor says Schofield was ‘one of the first true computing experts in British journalism’This is a real shame. He not only made a big contribution to personal computing in the form of his Guardian and magazine articles, he was also a regular contributor to Quora, the answers site.

It made no difference to him that he was much more experienced both in tech and in writing. I shall miss his presence online.
