Wow, never heard of them? Dating back to the 80s,
they've made
(and still make, as far as I'm aware) some of the finest digitizing
oscilloscopes that money (a LOT of it) can buy. They also made quite
a bit of CAMAC equipment.
I used a Nicolet Logic Analyzer years ago and really liked it. And
Nicolet-Zeta made some very fine plotters. In the 70's, Nicolet made
a foray into medical CT equipment. I remember that they left a lot
of X-ray equipment around for trash pickup when the operation closed.
I was sore tempted to filch a box of Picker X-ray tubes they had left
out, but conscience got the better of me.
