Not important, but to correct the record:

    > the Datacomputer (also located in MIT's Tech Sq building.)

MIT didn't own any of the buildings in Tech Sq; they were all owned by
Cabot, Cabot and Forbes. I see that MIT once had an interest in Tech
Square, early on, but sold that interest in 1973 to its partner in
developing the complex, CCF.

The Datacomputer wasn't an MIT thing either; it was run by the Computer
Corporation of America.
