Summary
[edit]Promotional photo distributed in 1969 by the computer manufacturer.
This is not a vacuum tube UNIVAC II from 1958. It's a UNIVAC 1108, circa 1970. In the foreground is the operator's console, with the modified UNISCOPE 300 CRT console option. (Earlier models had a teletype.) In the rear are UNISERVO 8C tape drives (either 7 or 9 track, 800BPI), and on the right is the CPU with its maintenance panel. --John Nagle 06:16, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
