Speaking of the Jerq...
Is there a definitive history anywhere of the progression from Jerq up through the AT&T 730MTG? When I wrote my DMD5620 emulator I tried to find a complete history, but wasn't able to. I just found various (possibly apocryphal) bits and pieces here and there about AT&T objecting to various names until "DMD" was settled on by marketing at some point, and forcing the use of a WE32K in the 5620 for make-corporate-happy reasons.
