 Jul 86 History
Don Lancaster, Dan Myers, Josef Rosenthal and I worked in succession to design it, to produce it as a kit, to modify it into a proper computer terminal, and to document the information.
He advertised in magazines like Popular Electronics, because the TVT was an electronics project rather than a computer peripheral.
As an example of leverage, he explains that when he designs an electronics project, he writes a magazine article about it, licenses the kit for a royalty, and uses the articles as a book chapter.

 TalkBack > Penn Square work begins summer ’05
I understand that you see the Lancaster Square development as evidence that good people have bad ideas and you're equating that project with this one.
I'm not sure what would convince you that this project is viable! Honestly, as a pop psychologist like everyone else we all know, I think you have much more invested in the project failing than succeeding.
Sorry, PowerPoint presentation or not, I can't change the laws of physics.

Harris: "I have an e-mail about one of these files, or folders that says "replace the files with these." How would you prevent overwriting a program patch with one that contains malicious code?""

In 1974 they began producing the TVT-1, a "television typewriter" much like a computer terminal, from a design by Don Lancaster.
Before selling any computers, SwTPC had been in business selling electronic kits, amplifiers and such.

 Tesla Turbine Myths Part II
It all started when Tesla built what he thought would be an inefficient frictional pump consisting of a single disk to move mercury to and from components of his high power switching devices.
What is important to take note of is that the Tesla turbine has been documented to operate with a lower steam consumption than other bladed type turbines operating in the same class.
It is now the considered opinion of those who have studied this carefully, including of course Tesla, that spiral flow disk runners can achieve efficiencies in excess of 95%.
