 * Symbol confirmed.svg New, long enough, neutral (a no-brainer for a technical article), no close paraphrasing or any other copyvios detected. Interesting piece of 'puter history good to go. I made a few adjustments; the VTX2000 is not mentioned in the body, but that should be an easy insert; the article doesn't appear in the navbox included—again, easy, but I don't know where to put it. 23W 15:04, 14 October 2015 (UTC)
