Only 4 were connected initially but this rapidly escalated

Vint,

A colleague posed this question:

When ARPAnet connected the four universities in 1969, were there only
actually four computers connected to each other? If not, does anyone know
how many? A source (not Wikipedia or your personal memory) for this
information would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Ulla

I did not know the answer. Could you help? I think your personal memory
would suffice.

The center is progressing well but more slowly than my industrial self would
like to see. Hope things are well with you.

Thanks for your help.

Reid
