National Cash Register

Hi. I have a national cash register from the 1800s I'm guessing. Does anyone know why the name MJ Kiley would be in larger print on the front. It is literally part of the cash register.. thanks in advance 73.68.31.200 (talk) 12:32, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

NCR 3600

Please remove the sentence "The 3600, through NCR subsidiary Applied Digital Data Systems supported both the Pick Operating System and Prime Information" because it has marginal importance. NCR 3600 was a extreme expensive massively-parallel system based on Intel CPUs (like the whole 3000 series) and working only with Teradata database. There have been strong attempts to implement Sybase - but the efforts failed. Fortunately we eventually managed to install Oracle Parallel Server, because the customer rejected Teradata. PS there ave been plans to manufacture even stronger model - the NCR 3700 - but this has never happen. The NCR 3000 series - strictly based on "Wintel" architecture (and AT&T Unix SVR4 - because Microsoft was not able to handle multiprocessor- and massive parallel systems - at the time) - was covering the entire computer range - from real pen (wireless touch-sensitive Wacom) based tablets (NCR 3125) and notebooks, trough desktops (3200 (later named by the competitors "thin clients") and 3300), servers (one of the first multiprocessors 3400 (tower) and 3500 (rack) - sold lots of them :) up to "mainframes" 3600 and 3700 - could become the world best computer series ever - unfortunately the company pursued efforts to make them proprietary - what eventually destroyed the whole NCR computer business - despite not only SCSI (NCR 53C80 chip), but also Intel 4004 (designed for a NCR cash register - produced by Japanese Busicom) and also WiFi (Wave LAN) have their roots in NCR :((( 188.167.251.57 (talk) 08:50, 8 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
