I think I do, but I'm having a hard time naming them. DEC and Wang I remember for sure, but the other three elude me. I want to say NeXT, but I'm not sure that's right.
Also, I don't recall whether SUN was local or a CA company. There were (and I believe still are) a load of SUN workstations in the MIT computer clusters.
