Yes, they were so different from the commercials of today. Many commercials now are a form of entertainment, I watch some and afterwards could not tell you what the product was.CFDFEAGURU said:I like when the hosts of the shows did the commercials themselves.

Thanks for posting aquitaine. Those old commercials take me back to my early childhood years. However, that one predates me by just a little.

The Remington Univac Mainframe was a computer system produced by the Remington Rand company in the 1950s. It was one of the first commercially available mainframe computers and was used for data processing and scientific computing.
The Remington Univac Mainframe was a large and bulky machine that used vacuum tubes for processing, whereas modern computers use smaller and faster transistors. It also had limited storage and processing capabilities compared to modern computers.
The purpose of the "Blast from the Past" commercial was to showcase the advanced technology of the Remington Univac Mainframe and its capabilities in data processing and scientific computing. It was also a way for Remington Rand to market their product to potential customers.
The Remington Univac Mainframe was a major milestone in the development of computers and played a significant role in advancing data processing and scientific computing. It opened up new possibilities for businesses and governments to store and process large amounts of data, and paved the way for future advancements in computing technology.
No, the Remington Univac Mainframe is no longer in use today as it has been replaced by more advanced and efficient computer systems. However, its legacy and impact on the field of computing can still be seen in modern technologies.
