Funny you should mention the keyword NuBus in your presentation. Yes
the Apple Mac II machines used it. They licensed it from TI, who
developed it while exploring the wonders of Lisp. Anyone here remember
the Lisp Machines that were extremely popular once?
Oh yes, I have several of them here, all Symbolics. A 3640, 3645, and an
XL1201.
One was made by TI. And it used that expansion bus.
Yes, the TI Explorer. I hadn't remembered that that was where NuBus came
from. Neat. Then it's less of a happenstance thing that Cisco used it,
given their Lisp connections back then.
