Networks that link personal computers in offices. The Open Environment and How It Changed PARC started with a small nucleus—perhaps fewer than 20 people. A later version of that tester, based on an Alto personal computer, also developed at PARC, ended up being used by Intel itself on its production line. Laser printers.
