Once upon a time, Harris Corporation made minicomputers designed for 
number-crunching. One day, their management decided to get into the data 
processing business, so they got a company that wrote academic 
administrative software to agree to sell their package only with a 
Harris computer. The computer's instruction set wasn't designed for data 
processing, and the Harris COBOL compiler generated library calls to do 
basically everything -- moves, arithmetic, etc -- except for branches. 
The resulting runtime performance was bad.

One of my favorite projects was writing a Harris assembler program to 
read and print Burroughs printer backup tapes. As an offline printer, 
the machine did well.

And it had the coolest lights on the operator's console.
