In the early-1970s, while working for TRW Data Systems (founded by
   Larry and Doug Michaels, who later founded the early commercial Unix
   provider Santa Cruz Operations) I led development of a proprietary OS
   for the Datapoint 2200.

   The OS ran on a descrete implementation of the 8008 processor after
   Intel had encountered tech and yield issues. The OS supported drivers
   for keyboard, CRT, disk and tape drives, telecommunications controlling
   dozens of specialized remote terminals, and a hashed access
   database, With dynamic overlays it all fit within 16 KB of RAM.
