History of Symbolics lisp machines
Read OriginalThis article presents Dan Weinreb's archived rebuttal to Richard Stallman's narrative about the formation of Symbolics and LMI. Weinreb disputes Stallman's claims of 'backstabbing' and unethical behavior, arguing the split was due to practical business disagreements. He also challenges Stallman's account of Symbolics 'wiping out' the MIT AI Lab and provides a different perspective on the software licensing and development conflicts of the era.
