| | IBM 1620 Model I - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The IBM 1620 Model I was the original implementation of the IBM 1620 scientific computer, introduced in 1959. |  | | One industry magazine (Datamation) mentioned that the 1620 was the first IBM computer for which the basic system could be leased for a monthly rate less than its number. |  | | Expansion to either 40,000 or 60,000 decimal digits required the addition of an IBM 1623 Memory unit. |

| | The Personal Computer |
 | | IBM was well aware of the development of microprocessors and personal computers and had developed a desktop computer for scientific markets in 1975. |  | | IBM approached Gary Kildall of Data Research for an operating software for the new computer, but for some muddled reason Kindall was passed up and Microsoft entered the picture. |  | | The IBM computer became an immediate success, and the presence of the IBM logo legitimized the personal computer, with the machine becoming an industry standard. |

| | IBM Electric typewriter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Following the introduction of the IBM Selectric typewriter in 1961, which was much easier to interface to a computer, these typewriters were rarely used anymore as "console typewriters" or terminals. |  | | Modified Standard versions of the A, B, and C models were commonly used as "console typewriters" or terminals on many early computers (e.g., JOHNNIAC, IBM 1620, PDP-1). |  | | The IBM Electric typewriters were a series of electric typewriters that IBM manufactured, starting in the late 1940s. |

 | | The IBM Selectric typewriter (occasionally known as the IBM Golfball typewriter) is the electric typewriter design that brought the typewriter into the electronic age starting in 1961. |  | | The Selectric typewriter was first released in 1961 and is generally considered to be a design classic. |  | | The hybrid typewriter produced camera-ready justified copy using proportional fonts in a number of font sizes and styles, using the typeball. |

He worked as a customer engineer in the IBM Office Products Division from 1973 to 1980, where he spent 80% of his time working on IBM typewriters. |  | | Gerry Kaplan and I talked at length last week about the procedure for centering a line of type using the IBM Selectric Composer, and Gerry informed me that it would have been monstrously tedious. |

 | | Typewriters had made little allowance for errors except for the backspace key (forcing the invention of whiteout and erasable bond paper), but in 1947 Friden introduced the Flexowriter, an electric typewriter with paper tape storage. |  | | As the typewriter had become a symbol of the secretary (and of the professional writer), computer printing began as a symbol of science, and of big business's data processing departments. |  | | IBM took a different path from Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) to EBCDIC (Enhanced Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code). |

 | | Besides being the first real "end-user" language, and the first attempt at a really "user-friendly" interface, it included a special terminal design adapted from a high-quality IBM electric typewriter that printed in two colors in lower and upper case on drilled fanfold 8*11 paper so that the output was a direct extension of one's notebook. |  | | The vague term "computer literacy" also surfaced in the sixties, and in its strongest sense reflected a belief that the computer was going to be more like the book than a swiss army knife. |  | | The idea that programming should be set up so it could be metaphorically like writing is harder to track down, but you could see it in Cliff Shaw's JOSS from the same early period. |
