I just find it interesting that you rarely see many people on the list discussing Wang mini's or Wang workstations. I had the opportunity back in 1991 to install a Novell NACS (Async Comm Server) to a Wang mini so that the company that had it could replace the Wang terminals with PC's running the remote connectivity client and still continue connecting to the Wang mini.

Reading from an early '80's VS brochure: "From individual specialized systems design (1951-1964), to the first desktop programmable calculators (1964-1972), to the Company's state-of-the-art family of data processing and word processing office systems, Wang has been a pioneer in the high technology electronics industries." and "As the leading supplier of CRT-based word processing systems, and the number two supplier of small business computing systems, Wang Laboratories carries its reputation proudly into the 1980's" Maybe the name causes problems with porn filters... mike
