OK, it was wireless, but that brings up another surprise, that wireless
ethernet came before wired :-)
As others have indicated, I think not. ;-)
I recently watched the following videos of Bob Metcalfe:
- Link - Ethernet Briefings in April 1978 by Bob Metcalfe (112 minutes)
- https://youtu.be/Fj7r3vYAjGY
And the follow up:
- Link - Metcalfe's Law After 40 Years of Ethernet (19 minutes)
- https://youtu.be/f6CJA421aUo
The Ethernet Briefings video goes into fairly good detail comparing and
contrasting ALOHA net and Ethernet.
