Darn--I've wondered about a design link between Datapoint and Beehive
terminals.  The Beehive design resembled the Datapoint more than
trivially--it used no static ram, but rather dynamic shift registers as
screen and working memory for the 8008.  Since that was a pretty formidable
design for its time, I wondered if Beehive had recruited Datapoint talent
to do it, since DP would have had the best knowledge of the wiorkings of
the 8008.

Cheers,
