Re:Motorola 68030 wire wrap prototype by progre on Tuesday November 29, 2022 @03:29AM (#33785030)
We had a roundness/excentricity measuring machine at an old workplace (truck engine plant). I saw it get a full service+upgrade once. Electronics was all wire wrap. This was in 2005. Apparently they made so few of these machines, and each was made to order with custumizations so wire wrap made sense. And the service guy said that wire wrap was way more reliable than solder.
