I'm guessing Proteon was an independent company
until DEC bought
them at some point?
Did DEC ever buy Proteon? I was with DEC's network group (NAC)
when we bought the rights to the Proteon code base (or at least
some of it).
Then Cabletron bought NAC. Some stuff went to EDS. Disks and tapes
were sold off. Compaq bought what was left. HP bought Compaq and now
has bought EDS.
So lots of recycled stuff, but I don't think Proteon is in there
anywhere.
