was thinking "that's a lot of buttons for some kind of cassette degauss thingy???"
Company had big tablets that talked to these, it was a PCB design system from 1992.
I think I saw something like it at a trade show once,
back then a B&W TV was around 14" these CAD guys had CRT's that must have been 40" across, I had no idea such things even existed
oddly enough our drawing department a decade later still mostly drew things with a pen, Autocad was just one clunky PC that nobody seemed to know how to use
A lot of companies probably did hand-draw up into the early 90s, or later. PCB CAD software really didn't come into it's own until probably the mid-late 90s.
