[GreenKeys] Irv Hoff and Datapoint

[Tony J. Podrasky]

I don't recall the Datapoint, but when I was talking with Irv he
was running the PDP. I had picked up a Data General Nova 1200
and was designing interfaces for it and writing my own code.

The machines were close in their instruction sets, but to
try and write a cross-compiler required more work than either
of us wanted to invest - plus considering the price of the machines
we kinda knew we'd be the only 2 with them.
