I think its actually the story of Compaq who did exactly the same thing with the BIOS chip.

Later on in coming episodes to justify what Cardiff was doing to IBM, they make it sound as if IBM reverse engineered Compaq.  

So many copy cats out there.

Today I was sent an anonymous email image of what the Cardiff Giant (used in that TV series) was supposedly copied from.



Apparently the DHP didn't sell very well, as it had a fixed BG screen. no Lotus 123 or MS-DOS, and was only marketed to homosexuals.

Trouble was back in 1984, homosexuals were still in the closet, so the DHP brand went out of business.

The email said the DHP founder moved to Australia and is now living a manchild existence selling Chinese junk.
