326.0. "Goodby General Doriot" by SAUTER::SAUTER (John Sauter) Wed Jun 10 1987 08:38

    From Time magazine, June 15, 1987, page 69:
    
    DIED.  Georges Fredrick Doriot, 87, retired Harvard Business School
    professor and venture capitalist who bankrolled scores of high-tech
    companies (including Digital Equipment Corp.) and inspired generations
    of future U.S. business leaders with his highly personal, aphoristic
    course Manufacturing, which stressed the satisfactions of work that
    is hard and challenging; of lung cancer; in Boston.  ``Always remember
    that someone, somewhere, is making a product that will make yours
    obsolete,'' he warned students.
