TELEPHONE TRANSCRIPT, Central Exchange Monitoring, July 9th, 1963.
Hello? Hello! Is that the office of Dr. Turner? No no, the other Dr. Turner? Doesn't matter! I have good news! The best news!
Your new computers are up and running! We did it! And these powerhouses are going to absolutely blow you away! We've got some of the world's very best discrete RTL-based integrated circuits, with a central processing unit running at one and a half megahertz, all of this able to address half a million characters of memory. We've even got a thirty-two bit word length. It's hard to imagine a more powerful machine. What's more, these things barely weigh seventy pounds!
It's truly amazing. You absolutely must come down and see one in action. I think ARDA might well have pushed computing as far as it will ever go!
