There was once a pioneering company which had a huge success with a class of computer dubbed a minicomputer.
The company became international, large, highly profitable and with very well respected products particularly among the scientific and engineering community.
In 1977 the founder, chairman, CEO and big boss opined: "There is no reason for any individual to have a computer in his home."
In 1998 the company was dead and gone, split up and bought piece-meal by other companies.
