When you hear the name EPSON, what images come to your mind? Mine, like many of you I’m sure goes to inkjet printers, or even scanners.

Well, actually, I think of their new campus building, which I think is impressive.

But Seiko-Epson (or, as it used to be, Shinshu Seiki) has been around for a long time --- I just looked at their corporate page, and they are now over 83,000 employees world-wide.

They were producing handheld computers way back in 1982:

The HX-20

Epson has a web page with their proudest accomplishments of the last 50 years at http://www.epson.co.jp/e/company/milestones.htm.
