Granville Technology Group
Granville Technology Group Ltd was a British computer retailer based in Simonstone, near Burnley, Lancashire.
Selling computers under several brands - Time; Tiny; Colossus; MJN - it sold mainly through mail-order, though late in its life added a chain of stores in the UK that traded as The Computer Shop, which rapidly grew to over 300 stores.
The company went into receivership at the end of July 2005, at which time it employed 1,600 people and was one of the largest retailers of computers in Britain, which were produced by the Time Factory located at the same site.

Famous quotes containing the words technology and/or group:
“If we had a reliable way to label our toys good and bad, it would be easy to regulate technology wisely. But we can rarely see far enough ahead to know which road leads to damnation. Whoever concerns himself with big technology, either to push it forward or to stop it, is gambling in human lives.”
—Freeman Dyson (b. 1923)
“My routines come out of total unhappiness. My audiences are my group therapy.”
—Joan Rivers (b. 1935)
