The Pyramid 90X console processor had a 5.25in diskette drive for loading microcode, not a 8" as the article states (the 8" belonged in the vax 780). The article does not mention the Pyramid Workcenter, a physically smaller 90x with a significantly lower price.

Under 98X, the entry model was named 9805.

Possibly the most important omission in the article is the Dual Universe Operating system - OSX. Unique at the time and a major sales point for Pyramid in a period when the Unix war between Berkeley Unix and AT&T (USG) Unix was just starting.
