The MBA's invaded the industry and took the fun out of it.

I liked the serious full page specification sheet of the Zero Ohm resistor which had a tolerance and full set of parameters.

NSC always had good technical writers in the 70's. Although, my recollection of the funniest technical writing was found in book about a programming language called Forth, used in my Cambrian Disk tester in the 80's.

Maybe it was lawyer's that took the fun out of it.

I remember when I was just getting started in electronics and saw the Damn Fast Buffer in a data book. At the time I wondered if it had some special meaning.

I was looking for the Moben diode the other day.
Anyone know if there is still a data sheet around?
