NLS will be able to control the former through the proper design of its cartridge, and flash memory is very well rated for the latter.
NLS does not expect that any given DTB title will remain on a cartridge for that long, as all but the most popular titles will be duplicated on demand.
NLS is committed to the idea that local libraries continue to be able to produce local content for use with NLS players, so it is vital that blank cartridges be reasonably priced.

NLS was linked via leased telephone lines to ARC members in Menlo Park, California and the main display of the presentation was on a large 20 foot diagonal projection screen with Douglas Engelbart addressing the audience wearing a headset.
NLS was not designed to be easy to learn, it employed the heavy use of program modes, relied on a strict hierarchical structure, did not have a point-and-click interface, and forced the user to have to learn cryptic mnemonic codes to do anything useful with the system.

Engelbart and his team developed and deployed the oNLine System (NLS), a computer system that implemented a graphically rich, interactive, collaborative computing and software development environment in the late 1960's, an era when punched cards and batch processing were the state of the art for accessing computing resources.
The ideas behind NLS catalyzed a revolution in the development of computing environments and personal computing, but for many reasons both technical and social, the system itself was largely ignored and the vision was transformed in ways that diminished the essential role of collaborative work.
It is designed as a client-server system (although it should be possible to balance the protocols to support true peer-to-peer implementations) in which the client-side APIs create a directly manipulable, automatically updated, local copy of a working subset of the server-side data repository.

 NLS Video -- Review
The system actually supported printing, which is pretty remarkable when you consider the kinds of graphics it was capable of (coming up next).
Since the whole system consisted of combinations of one-letter commands, the ability to create a "word" that was in reality a series of commands, mark it, and reuse it, created a clever scripting mechanism.
But their understanding grew with the system, little by little, as complexity was added complexity little by little.
