Byte magazine had an article back in the day where one of the designers talked about their decision process and intent while designing.

Luckily, someone has already scanned that article. In fact, it looks like they recreated the article:

Thanks for this! What a blast from the past! Look at the ADS! Nice little diversion here.

Sure do miss BYTE. Would be excellent to have a similar publication today. The scope is larger, perhaps too large, but maybe not. One got such great perspective from the pages of BYTE.

Aside the article, the computers depicted in the ads are amazing!
