[game_preservation] Computer Legend and Gaming Pioneer Jack Tramiel Dies at Age 83

[Andrew Armstrong]

An interesting company, one I need to read more up on. Very significant 
in the USA, and reasonably significant over here (although we have 
several PET's we have no working ones annoyingly!), so I don't know the 
whole story.

I will sort out an obituary page next week, unless Devin beats me to it 
or anyone else wants to write something up :)
