It was succeeded by the Data General Eclipse, which was similar in most ways but added virtual memory support and other features required by modern operating systems.

Ken Olsen was not supportive of this project, so de Castro left DEC along with another hardware engineer, Richard Sogge, and a software engineer, Henry Burkhardt III, to found Data General ( DG ) in 1968.

In 1969, Data General shipped a total of 50, 000 Novas at $ 8000 each.

— see, for instance, Step-Saver Data Systems, Inc. v. Wyse Technology, Vault Corp. v. Quaid Software Ltd ..

At the beginning of the century, there was a phrase " database mining "™, trademarked by HNC, a San Diego-based company ( now merged into FICO ), to pitch their Data Mining Workstation ; researchers consequently turned to " data mining ".
