In a Wall Street Journal article about an exhibit at the Computer History Museum, Deborah Gage recalls a pricey appliance, the Honeywell 316:
“…a short-lived experiment designed to help women store recipes, organize menus, and balance the family checkbook. As high and wide as a table, it weighed over 100 pounds, took two weeks to learn to program and was sold by Niemen Marcus for about $10,000 in 1969.”
