Hey, kmguru, it looks like that computer out of "willy wonka and the chocolate machine" does anyone know the name of that machine in Willy Wonka, it makes me laugh every time I see the movie with its witty humour and all.
Yeah, that was a pretty small computer actually I think, for 30 years ago, and a cheap price, though there has been plenty of inflation since then.
I think that basically whats on our desktops now is say better than a super computer 10-15 years ago.
I know that 10-11 years ago a computer for our airport was purchase for 4million (US8Million ut back then would have been US 5.5million?approx).
It ran equivalent approx 175mhz pentium if that. Pretty cool huh?
