Actually, when the product was displayed at the World Fair, the mainframe business had already been sold, so, that's not the reason.

You're right, I've got the timeline a bit messed up. Anyway, I'm sure that the project met resistance at some point because of the competition with the mainframe business.

Maybe at its inception. I guess that the real problem there was that the project wasn't the pet of any specific big manager in the company - a real pity.
