„The Honeywell Kitchen Computer was a special offering of the H316 (…) in 1969 (…). It was offered for US$10,000 (equivalent to US$83,000 in 2023), weighed over 100 pounds (over 45 kg) and was advertised as useful for storing recipes. The imagined uses of the Honeywell Kitchen Computer also included assistance with meal planning and balancing the family checkbook – the marketing of which included highly traditional and patronizing representations of housewives.“
