So wait - did the guy invent the FN key? And does FN on modern keyboards stand for "FroNt", rather than "FuNction"?

I don't think so. The space-cadet keyboard had a FRONT key and it predates the canon cat by at least a few years: It literally referred to the characters on the front of the keycaps (as opposed to the top).
