Gee, I remember way way back when ... in my yuth we
had a 1401 and some one places a small portable radio
next to the CPU and there was a distict music pattern
you could hear on the radio.
Back about 1966, Carnegie-Mellon Univ had an RCA RACE mass storage unit,
with a computer acting as a storage control unit to interface to a
Bendix/CDC G-21 processor. I think it was an RCA computer (model number
escapes me) but I could be wrong. The programmer set it up to play
"Flight of the Bumblebee" in its entirety, over a nearby radio.
