Lest you think I only admire those old machines for their beauty, here's a link again to the Old Calculator Museum, which I mentioned some time ago. Most of these old calculators are astonishingly ugly devices, made at a low point in the history of industrial design, but I love them anyway, probably because they remind me of my childhood.
(The ahead-of-its-time Friden EC-130 had a sort of buttoned-down, mid-C20-technocratic beauty to it, though.)
