I just saw a snippet of the movie "The Towering Inferno" where they were in a security control room and there was a panel in the background with a grid of large rectangular lamps all blinking like mad. Was this a real computer? If so, what was it? If no one can answer, I'll just get the movie in my next Netflix batch and suffer through it to check. -- Sellam Ismail Vintage Computer Festival ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ International Man of Intrigue and Danger http://www.vintage.org [ Old computing resources for business || Buy/Sell/Trade Vintage Computers ] [ and academia at www.VintageTech.com || at http://marketplace.vintage.org ]
