The Olivetti Programma 101

The Olivetti Programma 101 was presented in New York in 1965 by its designer Giorgio Perotti but the Olivetti family did not understand its importance and sold the Olivetti Divisione Elettronica to General Electric which sold it to Honeywell which sold it to Bull France which let it die slowly. Amen.

Well I am out and about but staying close to home. I think today we had our first real summer day. In the high twenties, low humidity, a light ocean breeze, not a cloud in the sky.
