"I led the team that developed the ISA bus in the original PC, and the first follow-ons," said Dean, who is director of advanced systems development at the company's Austin, Texas, facility. "We thought the ISA bus architecture would sell 100,000 or 200,000 units, then we'd have to develop something else." " Title: Technology pioneers: A Black History Month salute.
