The Monrobot
consists of the main computer unit which contains the
electronics and magnetic drum, a little control unit with switches and
control buttons and a place for the I/O typewriter. It's about the size
of an office desk and weighs about 400 lbs. A side section connects to
it and has a paper tape punch and a reader.
