The job my mom started with. I’m old enough to have seen a telex machine working.

Women were often the main typists leading up to this era (it’s true, look into it; they had buildings full of women sitting in front of typewriters) so is there any correlation to this advertisement featuring a woman? By the early 80s, computers were mainly advertised to businessman for personal bookkeeping.

I’m a feminist so don’t come at me bro, and this is a genuine question.

Edit: Telex. I should’ve looked into it further. I’m not familiar but it seems like this is what led to the curiosity which allowed the personal computer, in a mainstream setting.
