Explanatory Answers
2. National Cash Register Company was founded by John H. Patterson in 1884. The name was
shortened to NCR in 1974. They were purchased by AT&T in 1991, and bore the name AT&T GIS
from 1994 to 1996. It was changed back to NCR when they were spun off as an independent
company in 1996.
3. Den, Aoyama and Takeuchi were the founders, who adopted the name Datsun in 1932. Reference
was to the rising sun on the Japanese flag.
4. Stanford University is an incubator for many Silicon Valley high tech firms. The first Sun workstation

quarter they were in business.
5. Exxon is the company that evolved from what was once John D. Rockefeller's Standard Oil. The
name was changed from Esso to Exxon in 1972 in the United States, with Esso retained in other

names have meanings related to nature.
