Yeah?  1984 was the MFJ.  (The "Modified Final Judgement", modifying the 
"Final Judgement" of 1934 or so.  The "Final Judgement" said "AT&T can 
have a monoply".  The "modification" was to amend that to say "No, you 
can't, and indeed you have to help your competitors and stop doing 
anything they already compete with you." Sort of like an idempotent 
modification.)

Oh, you mean, back when a terabyte occupied a small room? Yes, that.
