State of the Art, 1950.

We here in Cornslaw Industries' Technology Development Division (CITDD) have spent many hours of the past few days scouring the Intar-Web in search of any specifics/rumors/new-nesses on new computers coming out for the 2006 big holiday season push and the uber-geeky new year. In a truly technologically-humbling moment, we came across this "Operating Guide" for a Zenith Radio Phonograph Combination from the late-1940/early-1950. A note on the last page states that it was purchased on February 15, 1950. Here is a rathy in-depth manual for 56 year old technology. I guess it got us to the moon, but we should all thank our lucky chips.
This is the entire manual, including front and back cover.
Please to enjoy...
