I mean as a DEC fan I understand the sweetness of a VS8000 as the
odd man out (a personal workstation with BI!), but it hardly seems
important in painting the broad strokes of the industry.
Heck, BI in itself is nothing more than an oddball historical footnote
looking backwards, I mean, there was very little third-party stuff
Made for BI (present company excepted). You wouldn't know it by the front page of the
Digital Review at the time! Oh Charlie Matco loved the leaks.

Nice little boxes.
Does CHM have one?
