Sorry to make you look like an even bigger idiot - since you've been doing
such a good job of that by yourself - but HDTV was being talked about as
far back as the late 60s, with the FCC starting to define what the HDTV
standard would be around 1987 - years before the 286 came out.
You can google "hdtv history" for other links but here's a lecture on the
