Talk:Ethernet
From Computer History Wiki
Tri-company acronym
I remember the acronym for DEC, Intel and Xerox being "DIX" instead of "XDI". Vaxorcist (talk) 08:13, 11 June 2022 (CEST)
- Oh, you might be right; that 'rings a bell', as the English expression goes. Let me dig into my archive of contemporary documents, and see what I can find. Jnc (talk) 11:51, 11 June 2022 (CEST)
Capitalization?
Was 'ethernet' canonically capitalized ('Ethernet') or not? I seem to recall that it was? Jnc (talk) 05:13, 20 August 2022 (CEST)
- Yes, I think so - similar to names of companies, products, etc. And I remember that DEC capitalized "Ethernet" almost always. Vaxorcist (talk) 13:38, 20 August 2022 (CEST)
- OK, thanks for confirming that. I have checked all the articles that link to 'Ethernet', and found a few that needed correction. Jnc (talk) 14:32, 21 August 2022 (CEST)
