 ===Serial Vandalism On This Article=== 

 Please stop shoveling deleted trash back into this article!!! It is unsourced and it is wrong. Whoever moved this garbage ""History"" section to the bottom and renamed it ""Early history"", butt out! You know nothing about it. How can a section be named ""Early history"", yet fail to name the first, second, or third DAWs that were made? If you don't know what they are-and it is clear that you don't-you are unqualified to write about it!  

 You can not edit trash, it must be deleted. There is NOTHING of ANY value in this section, NOTHING. It is purified garbage.  

 Here, I'll give you an example of one tiny section of it: 

 In 1981, recording engineer Roger Nichols built his own digital audio workstation using a S-100 bus-based computer with 32 MB hard disk used for storage of digital audio data. It interfaced digitally to a multi-track digital audio tape recorder in his studio, and was used during the recording and production of Donald Fagen's 1982 album, The Nightfly[3]. 

 I don't even know where to start with that. It is worse than wrong and unsourced, it has had a fraudulent source added onto it to give it some credence! You are a vandal! GO AWAY!  

 The homemade Nichols system is hardly relevant, no one ever bought it or used it, and all we know about it was written by Nichols. Perhaps he made a time machine, too?  

 This was first used on the 1980 album Gaucho. And the system was made ""In 1981""?  

 It ""interfaced...recorder in his studio""? He didn't HAVE A STUDIO! Read the album credits, idiot.  

 It goes on to say ""...Donald Fagen's 1982 album, The Nightfly[3]."" Check that source, it does NOT have that information in it! This is false and it is vandalism! That SOS article does not even contain ""1981"" in it, yet it is given as the source of ""In 1981, recording engineer Roger Nichols built..."". 

 Can somebody with some administrative powers lock these know-nothing moronic vandals out of this page please?  "
