Hi Daniel, the interview you linked should be a HN submission in its own right. It's a shame to have it lost in a comment two levels deep in a long thread.

I am sure there are a lot of people interested in the history of computing and user interfaces that would really appreciate this interview and seeing the original prototypes and sketches.

My whole speculative checklist on the matter is now confirmed about as accurately as I could ever hope for. What a lovely feeling of satisfaction that is
