I've gotten stuck going down a rabbit hole, and I can't find more info so figured I'd ask here and see if anyone knows.

I've found a lot of info on why the #70mm #IMAX QTRU hasn't replaced the palm pilot, but nothing on why it was originally designed with one.

Was it that era's equivalent of just throwing an Raspberry Pi in something and saying "ship it"?

Feel free to boost and/or add hashtags.
