Newsweek covers "Calculating Machines" web page

The following article appeared in Newsweek magazine:
I was most pleased with this coverage, since it introduced this subject to many new readers.

US edition, September 1, 1997, cover story "Can this meat kill you?".
International edition, September 8, 1997, cover story "Princess Diana".

Original text from article:

INTERNET
It All Adds up to This.

Before the calculator came along to make our lives easier, People used the abacus, slide rules and a variety of adding machines.

The Calculating Machines home page (webcom.com/~calc) pays tribute to these devices and their creators. The historical information is interesting,

but more compelling is an archive of cheesy print ads for adding machines from the '30s to the '50s. And there's a Java applet that simulates the 1885 Felt & Tarrant "Comptometer" adding machine.
