This system is of a remarkable design and won quite some prizes for Olivetti in its time. Later machines made by Olivetti departed from that and were packaged in simple cubic enclosures.</p> 16 <p>In 1968, P101 which has been extended with more memory, was coupled to a 17 typewriter. This made it possible to print tables and the like automatically. 18 It is interesting to note that the computer was only capable to print numbers - 19 text data had to be typed manually on the keyboard.<br> 20 One of the most remarkable features of this 'computer' is its enclosure. It 21 was designed by the Italian designer 'Mario Bellini' and got quite some awards. 22 Even today the style of the machine is admired by many. <br> 23 Unfortunately, Olivetti dropped this design and later machines were just plain 24 cubes in the style of the 1970s.</p> 17 25 </div> 18 26 </div>
