Megatek was one of the main high end graphics vendors in the 1970s and early
1980s, the other one was Evans and Sutherland. They were both largely
knocked out of the market when SGI came along. I always wanted one, but my
employers could never afford something that high end. Internally they are

I have a few extra VT 300s. I'm not sure of the exact model, I'll need to check
on the weekend. I'm in Oshawa, contact me off line if interested.

When I was doing 68K development work in the 1990s we used the GNU C compiler
to cross compile. It was a popular choice, so you might want to give it a try.

In my day job I work on computational holography and other forms of esoteric
3D displays, so I can give you some insight in how these things work.
Remember these are vector displays and not raster displays, so the
computational side is not an issue. You are basically looking at a pair of

When I lived in HK (I moved back to Canada 12 years ago) you could get a visa
to Shenzhen at the border. It was only valid for Shenzhen, but it only took
about 15-20 minutes. You might check to see if they still do that.

The desk top metaphor goes back to at least Doug Englebarts work in the 1960s.
There were no icons, but the basic metaphor was there.
You need to be careful when you talk about Smalltalk since there were several
quite different versions of it. The early versions were far more interesting

I worked on the early Smalltalk systems, mainly variations of Smalltalk 76.
They were there. It was the motivation for my MSc thesis which explored
concurrent message passing for UI implementation including a demo of a system
based on the desktop metaphor.

I worked on the run time support for the early versions of Pascal on the CDC
6000 series. Depending upon the character set determining the end of line was
a major pain. There was a loop hole in the Pascal type system that allowed you
to call any PPU program directly from Pascal. It was not w
OS to allow it to soon after process pending RA+1 requests.
I hope this all makes sense.
