I looked at the wikipedia entry for the Honeywell H200 series today,
and when I came to the "Pupular Culture" section I remembered that
when I was in High School (and our Computer Club got to use my school
district's H1200 stand alone one night every week) Lily Tomlin did a
"We don't care, we don't have to, we're the phone company" bit that
I
could swear included an H200 series system.
I found the video at:

It still looks like a Honeywell to me. Can any one make a solid
identifcation of what model?

says the skit aired 9/18/76.
H200's were over ten years old at the time..
That's 5 computer generations these days!
The wikipedia page has some H200 photos:

http://starringthecomputer.com/computer.php?c=48 says H200's appeared
in several movies, including the original Casino Royale! There's a
good still of the programmer's panel from the "Billion Dollar Brain".
I still remember the boot sequence:
