Well... as well all know, this hardware and software (DSP) was developed
for Military applications in the very early 70's.  I remember reading my
Association of Old Crows magazine back then and thinking about how
nice it would be when it finally hit the civilian market.  And it did,
starting
in the late 80's.  Now we have a lot of it to choose from and things are
only going to get better.
