No it didn't.  Cheap microprocessors and memory did.  When 
we didn't have to use a MicroVAX, things got better fast,
but a true history is seldom inspirational or sells books.

STimBL deserves the knighthood.  So does James Clark. 
Perhaps so did Mick and Paul, but that isn't a historical 
profundity as much as a sign of what a knighthood means 
to the folks who make those choices.
