This reminds me of a series of articles I ran accross in the Computer

the past several months he's been doing a series on the seven dwarves.

CDC? ;) CDC did produced good HDD's in
olden days...
They made good computers for a while as well. They really were great
machines in the 1960s, but thru the 1970s, their mainframes lagged far
behind, and management did nothing to help it. They made a very good try
in the early 1980s with the ETA supercomputers and Cyber 180s, but by
then, most people had written them off. In the end, it was just rebadged
SGIs called Cyber 190s...
