Speaking of the Jerq...
Is there a definitive history anywhere of the progression from Jerq up through the
AT&T 730MTG? When I wrote my DMD5620 emulator I tried to find a complete history, but
wasn't able to. I just found various (possibly apocryphal) bits and pieces here and
there about AT&T objecting to various names until "DMD" was settled on by
marketing at some point, and forcing the use of a WE32K in the 5620 for
make-corporate-happy reasons.
