I just got done watching the 1969 "The Italian Job". In it, the Turin,
Italy traffic system is controlled by a mainframe. All that was really
shown up close was a few tape drives. I paused, and advanced frame by
frame, but still had a hard time identifying the make. It looked like
the reals had a "H" printed on them. Would they have been HP drives? I
couldn't make out the plates on the very top of the racks.
FWIW, I liked the modern Italian Job better, although some of the cars
and scenery were pretty cool, in the old one.
