Exhibit at the Computer Museum when it was in Boston, MA
Taken around 1990 with a Vivitar PS:20 using Ektachrome 100 slide film. Scanned on a Canon MP990 using auto scan (1200 dpi). No edits other than flipping. The scan software is silly. It does not have you place the emulsion side toward the glass. It also crashes a lot in manual mode.
Never had these but I had many others over the years including:
- My Prism acoustic coupler mentioned before
- I connected a 1200/30 baud modem to Daisy in the US and used Kermit software to do file transfers
- Hayes Smartmodem
I knew much of the AT command sequences by heart
- Various 3COM PCMCIA modems in laptops
(Along with various adaptors for the wide variety of telephony plugs at the time)
- Palm Pilot modem

IBM, Model 1401, c. 1959
Memory: 16K Char (VL) Core
Speed: 3,300 Add/s
Cost: $125,000
“First introduced by IBM in 1959, the Model 1401 Data Processing System was popular with small businesses for applications such as payroll, inventory, and billing. In larger computer centers, the computer was often used as a print “spooler” to offload print jobs from a larger, more expensive system. Users programmed this variable-word-length character machine using Autocoder (assembly language), RPG, COBOL, and other languages.”

I remember this one fondly from when I was a young tyke reading about real robots from books in the library.

Jean Bartik, one of the original ENIAC programmers, was made a fellow of the Computer History Museum Tuesday of this week (her co-inductees were Bob Metcalfe (center banner), inventor of the ethernet, and Linus Torvalds (far banner), creator of Linux
A quick prototype of showing the tour times on our big display instead of on paper. I created a mock-up in Photoshop and just plugged my notebook straight to the display. We’re now looking into making this a standalone app and automating the whole thing (prototype).
