Like the serious student who becomes a handsome movie star by removing his horn-rim glasses, the Datatron computers found real fame not by their work in the Boston Navy Yard or a drab insurance office in Minnesota, but on TV and in films.
The Bat Computer? A Datatron. "Lost in Space?" A Datatron. "Angry Red Planet?" "Fantastic Voyage?" "The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes?" All the Datatron. And don't even ask about "Dr. Goldfoot and the Bikini Machine."
