I have the 1957 date in several books (the publication of which predate
Wikipedia). There's a document in Alan Earls's book that is the lease
for DEC's first office space, dated August 27, 1957. Other information I
have just says they took the venture money and founded DEC that summer.

But no actual date, sadly... Anyone know for sure? I maintain a list of
geeky things like this (and no, I don't necessarily trust Wikipedia, as it's
only as accurate as the last person who edited it).
