I agree, it is very sad about Kodak.
I worked for Kodak Ltd in the UK, first as a technical advisor on professional and A/V photography, and then as a specialist rep in the Graphics Imaging Systems Division, being instrumental in the introduction of graphics process cameras, contact frames etc and their associated processors.
When made redundant at the end of 1991, I could see 'the writing on the wall', and even though the company in the UK and Europe were 'up to speed' (and remember that a Kodak Ltd employee invented digital photography !), I remarked to my then boss that if the company world-wide didn't get its act together, it probably wouldn't exist in 5 to 10 years time.
And now, what was a huge organisation, even just in the UK, with multiple, large premises, mainly in Hemel Hempstead, has been reduced to a single, small unit on an industrial estate, with the former 'high rise' head office, Kodak House, converted into apartments !
It was, as Jim noted, a company that provided a 'job for life', with entire families working there, and great facilities and employee benefits.
Although I regretted having to leave, I owe that company a lot, as they trained me well, paid me well, and gave me a good 'golden handshake' at the end.
And now, back to our scheduled programmes .................
