Day 048/25. Another antique find.

Another find at the bottom of a cupboard. 
This one I remember the story of. 
Yes, I worked for Ampex in a prior life.
We had piles of these calculators as a company give-away in, I think, 1988. We gave them away to customers and pretty well anyone who wanted one.
The phrase 'Products that Shape the Future' is a bit ironic. The only way this shape exists now is on our Windows PC's as the File Explorer logo.
I think the hard disks the calculator freeby is based on stored 1.44MB.. Did I remember that right?

That makes this calculator about 37 years old. Amazingly it still works perfectly.
