Such computers cost $60,000 and up, need trained engineers to program and manage their operations; every instruction in a process must be turned into a mathematical equation, which is fed into a computer and transmitted first to punch tape, then to magnetic tape to guide the machines. The Marantettes' idea was far simpler: they wanted to use a stylus-like device connected to high-speed electric motors to "write" instructions...
