I think it’s fair to say that a viable commercial market for these technologies was inconceivable. In 1968 the photocopier was only 10 years old, the Boeing 747 was brand new, the moon landings had not yet happened and the microprocessor did not yet exist, nor did Moore’s law. As for caveats, Sutherland was using a $1.3m computer (2022 money) of which only 50 existed, and two TV microwave links ($$$) which are impossible to scale. Still, we can dream.
