- chx 3y agoThey manufactured it starting 1979 -- but they were ready by 1975. It was just politics. The Japanese visited Járosi for the prototype many times and made a gazillion photos. There's zero doubt where the idea came from. As far as I am aware, Sony have officially recognized the idea came from Járosi and Járosi have acknowledged Sony's actual drive has improved on his.
