@kenshirriff I read your earlier (but in substance identical) account of the Datapoint/Intel history a while ago. It is mind-blowing how the design decisions of a rather obscure intelligent terminal in 1970 still shape a large part of computing today, more than 50 years later — and probably for decades to come. No one could have ever imagined that at the time, and I even have a hard time grasping it now. Thanks a lot for sharing this!
