... I had the use for a while of a Datapoint desktop mini.... Datapoint was the first one I used for a paying job. Collected medical lab data locally and from a remote lab via a GE Terminet, collated it and printed lab reports. You can do a lot with a paper-tape reader and two cassette drives. It was the first really useful desktop computer in wide use, before Imsais, Northstars and their kin started turning up in small businesses. -- Goat |
