it?
Thanks,

Saw the most bazare IBM Electronic
Wordprocessor/Typewriter at a local Thrift
today. A Big Electronic IBM Typewriter (Ball Type), attached to a Hugh Mag Card
reader, its a floor unit that must weigh 100lbs.. Apparently stores letters in
its
memory
and then can store it contents on on some sort of
magnetic striped card.. This
thing is large
enough to house a minicomputer in it, but is
nothing more than a memory storage
device.. The cable that attaches the two units (Typewriter & Floor unit) must be
1 inch
thick and about 10 foot long... Must be one of the
first electronic typewriters
IBM
>produced with actual storage.. Anyone want it ? A real collectors item...
It's located at the "Comunity Thrift Store" in Fort Myers Florida..
I think it was priced at $19.00...
I am guessing by its size that is must use core memory to store letters in it..
<Grin>
What a collectors item... Can you imagine what this thing cost new...
