... no one else malking the '51.
The king of diamonds was still a knight and DOS ruled the world. Some of the more advanced companies had modem operated forums where you could get access at the blazing speed of 300 bps, your PC ran at the fantastic performance of 10MHz and, if you were lucky, had 600kb of memory. Most software performed better and faster than it does today, go figure.

I used no Intel 8051
So, YES,I used Intel, then Dallas, Then (for a very short time) Atmel, then the smaller Philips chips (752?) then .........

Oh, the days when you got time for a break for each and every update of you UVEPROM chips.
