Dave -- IPers may be interested in this article

http://www.mercurycenter.com/svtech/columns/gillmor/docs/dg092499.htm

in the San Jose Mercury-News about an early, but failed, attempt to get IBM
involved with
ARPANet in the early 80s.   There's interesting supporting documentation on the
Web,
referenced in the article as well.
