And in another DEC product: The DECpc 433 WS, the first "real" PC from
Digital (discounting the dreadful rebadged Olivettis before that and the
VAXmate). The DECpc 433 WS was a sweet machine at the time, manufactured
by Intel for DEC from DEC's specifications. Built-in TIGA graphics,
built-in Ethernet and built-in SCSI. All in a very slim and elegant
box... sold well, too.
