In case you can't read the bottom, it says:
"Scientists from the RAND Corporation have created this model to illustrate how a "home computer" could look like in the year 2004.  However the needed technology will not be economically feasible for the average home.  Also the scientists readily admit that the computer will require not yet invented technology to actually work, but 50 years from now scientific progress is expected to solve these problems.  With teletype interface and the Fortran language, the computer will be easy to use."
Boy, were they off!  Wouldn't you love to bring one of them to present time and show them the latest technology? 
I wonder what is coming next?
