One of the first single-user computers on the market when it came out in 1970 from the now-defunct Computer Terminal Corp., the Datapoint 2200 lives on in every PC today. CTC convinced fellow start-up Intel to reduce the machine's processor to a single chip, to combat system heating. Intel ended up adding the chip to its catalog, founding today's "Intel dynasty" of PC microprocessors. (System heating, alas, remains a problem.)
