The following interview with Bill Joy, creator of vi, was posted in Unix Review back in 84. I loved reading it for the historical value and for the sheer, "WTF, $300 / MB!?!?!" factor.
Also, I love how he keeps referring to "scrunching" as "the thing that happens when you lose code." The fact that this had a word to begin with means it happened, a lot. God, I hope my code never gets scrunched. =P
