On: Readability: An Important Announcement

[AndrewDucker]

Xanadu was a fascinating idea, but they still don't have a product I could put a user in front of and have them use it to read things.

If they ever had, I'd have some sympathy/respect for them.

I don't think it's really been a "them" for a while now; Xanadu as a funded project with employees wound down around 1993-94, and since then it's just been Ted Nelson occasionally sketching out designs.
