The Calculator Wars: A video history of Japan's electronic industry (Part 3

(1/1)

Alex Eisenhut:


YouTube recommended this to me and besides being pretty cool, you get to see a circa 1980 assembly line for calculators. Sweeeeet!

Thanks for sharing, that was a very interesting retro documentary to watch. We take so much for granted today and quickly forget how hard these giants worked before us to get us here. Those retro-commercials were also hilarious!

RoGeorge:
