The Data General Corp. v. Digital Computer Controls, Inc. article was being used to support a statement which did not involve Digital Computer Controls, Inc. directly and the DG article text does not explain that in any way. Jamplevia (talk) 19:48, 7 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Unix servers, not PCs, killed off mini computers

[edit]

the introduction of the IBM PC in 1981 marked the beginning of the end for minicomputers, and by the end of the decade, the entire market had largely disappeared.

So you are saying that few mini computers were sold in 1989????????????????????

were you there? I was and maybe unix replaced a lot of minis by 1999.
