Good info in the Hayward Daily Review

Diablo was based in Hayward, California for at least part of the 1970s, and their local newspaper covered some of their product launches. I just added a section about their data terminal with a citation from this newspaper, and I found another article from the mid-70s talking about their new printer models and HyTerm systems -- I clipped it on Newspaper Archive, which Wikipedia users can access for free via the Wikipedia Library. Here's a link to the article clipping: https://access-newspaperarchive-com.wikipedialibrary.idm.oclc.org/other-articles-clipping-may-19-1976-4642474/ Definitely room to add more information about the other things they made. It's true they are mostly well known for the 630 printer and the RX02/RX03 drives, but Diablo had a lot of other products that aren't mentioned in this article, and in many cases they were one of the earliest companies to commercialize some of these products.
