Does anyone recall when the DCB was introduced?
 
Fall 2006.
 
The DCB, or Digital Command Bus, was first introduced in 1995 by Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC). It was designed as a high-speed communication interface for connecting multiple devices in a computer system. DEC was later acquired by Compaq, which was then acquired by Hewlett-Packard (HP) in 2002. HP continued to use and develop the DCB technology in their computer systems until it was eventually phased out in the mid-2000s.
