But in their day, minicomputers were an order of magnitude smaller than the room-sized mainframes that preceded them. And they paved the way for the personal computers that could fit in a bag and, eventually, the phones in your pocket.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>16-bit minicomputers changed the world of IT in the 1970s. They gave companies the opportunity for each engineer to have their own machines. But it wasn’t quite enough, not until the arrival of 32-bit versions.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Carl Alsing and Jim Guyer recount their work at Data General to create a revolutionary new 32-bit machine. But their now legendary work was done in secret. Codenamed “Eagle,” their machine was designed to compete with one being built by another team in their own company. These engineers recall the corporate politics and intrigue required to keep the project going—and how they turned restrictions into advantages. Neal Firth discusses life on an exciting-but-demanding project. One where the heroes worked together because they wanted to, without expectations of awards or fame. And all three discuss how this story was immortalized in the non-fiction engineering classic, The Soul of a New Machine by Tracy Kidder.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cul>\n\u003Cli>\u003Ca href=\"//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Soul_of_a_New_Machine\" title=\"The Soul Of A New Machine\">The Soul of a New Machine\u003C/a> by Tracy Kidder\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>\u003Ca href=\"//blog.jessfraz.com/post/new-golden-age-of-building-with-soul\" title=\"The New Golden Age of Building with Soul\">The New Golden Age of Building with Soul\u003C/a> by Jessie Frazelle\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>\u003Ca href=\"//www.inf.fu-berlin.de/lehre/SS01/hc/minicomp\" title=\"The Minicomputers of the 70s\">The Minicomputers of the 70s\u003C/a> by Georg Wittenburg\u003C/li>\n\u003Cli>\u003Ca href=\"//ethw.org/Rise_and_Fall_of_Minicomputers\" title=\"Rise and Fall of Minicomputers\">Rise and Fall of Minicomputers\u003C/a> by Gordon Bell\u003C/li>\n\u003C/ul>\n\u003C/p>\u003Cp>Something missing or broken? \u003Ca href=\"https://github.com/thechangelog/show-notes/blob/master/podcast/the-changelog-takeover-clh-s4e1.md\">PRs welcome!\u003C/a>\u003C/p>","https://op3.dev/e/https://pscrb.fm/rss/p/https://cdn.changelog.com/uploads/podcast/takeover-clh-s4e1/the-changelog-takeover-clh-s4e1.mp3","audio/mpeg",43643067,"Tue, 04 Feb 2020 12:00:00 +0000",1812,"https://cdn.changelog.com/uploads/covers/changelog-interviews-original.png?v=63848368174","bonus","https://changelog.com/podcast/takeover-clh-s4e1",{"persons":116},[117,121],{"name":118,"role":20,"img":119,"href":120},"Saron Yitbarek","https://cdn.changelog.com/uploads/avatars/people/Len/avatar_large.jpg?v=63726498942","https://changelog.com/person/saronyitbarek",{"name":19,"role":20,"img":21,"href":22},null,1771793569856]
