A brief history of the Bloomberg terminal

IEEE Spectrum has published a retrospective on the Bloomberg terminal, tracing how Michael Bloomberg's finance data machine became a fixture of Wall Street since the 1980s. The piece looks at the terminal's distinctive keyboard, orange-on-black screens, its multi-billion-dollar subscription business, and how it has survived competitors and modern web-based alternatives that never dislodged it.
