 UNIVAC 9200 brochure cover. Sperry Rand liked their UNIVAC product models making phone calls. Or maybe they're calling product support. Or maybe Sperry Rand hires its product models to also work in their customer support department. Click image for larger view
I picked these images from the brochures included with the following proposal to Philip Morris dated November 1, 1968. I really love the pretty, hot, psychedelic photos of women and their UNIVAC 9000">... [ read more ] |

Winnebego Handheld Code Scannerby billdeg Total messages in this thread: 1  The Winnebego Handheld Programmable Code Scanner circa. 1998. Click image for larger view.
The Winnebego Handheld scanners were among the many other peripherals advertised in the back pages of mid-90's Byte and PC magazines.
I was reading the Sept 1995 Byte and I noticed a competitor's ad did not have an Internet address1. Turns out that very few Byte advertisers encourage their customers to "check out our web site" in September 1995, business had not yet adopted web pages.
I left Zeneca and started my web design company on October 9th 1995. It seemed at the time like there was a huge market for this thing called the web, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity fo">... [ read more ]

Realtronics Card Punch Interfaceby billdeg Total messages in this thread: 1  Photo of an interesting interface for a card punch from late 60's early 1970's. These devices were sold by a company called RealTronics. Click image for more photos.
 Cover removed. Note the large two-character Nixie tube display. Click image for more photos.
This control unit appears to be a current loop device, similar to a teletype. The RealTronics system consisted of a PDP 8i with third party hardware. I assume "Real" pertains to RealEstate, but I could only guess.

VCFed Workshop Photosby billdeg Total messages in this thread: 2 Updated: [ Univac Status Update ] 07/28/2016  The UNIVAC 1532 is probably from 1965-66 and was part of a UNIVAC 1219 (II) system. The 1532 has a Teletype model 35 on top, with a hood a control panel, and below a tape punch and reader unit below in a drawer. The whole thing is quite rugged. The 1532 configuration would have been installed on a US Naval ship where space was at a premium and rough seas were inevitable. Note the 1 inch 8-bit tape in the back of the drawer.
