Celebrate the legacy of computing innovation with our Digital Equipment Corporation Massachusetts Computer T-shirt!
This vintage-inspired tee pays homage to Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC), a pioneering force in the computer industry that helped shape the digital landscape we know today. Founded in 1957 in Maynard, Massachusetts, DEC became a cornerstone of the emerging computer industry and a key player in the famous Route 128 tech corridor.

At its peak in the 1980s, DEC was the second-largest computer company in the world, employing over 100,000 people. Its influence on the tech industry cannot be overstated, with many of today's tech leaders having cut their teeth on DEC systems.
