The first two machines I touched were a CDC 6400 and DEC 20 at Lehigh University in the 70s.

Both - while built by large teams - "felt" like they were designed by a single person, complete consistency across hw, OS, tools, and apps (programs). It's so foreign from the experience we have now it's difficult for me to describe.
