This model really did exist, and is NOT just a prop!
Note the similarity to an IBM 2401
The badge on the front undoubtedly says Genesis One, matching the banner log on this website:
Al Kossow/Bitsavers finds it!
But, is there an IBM-branded version with an identical cabinet and top-panel buttons?
And, does 2403 refer to the refrigerator-size tape transport, or the controller module/boards in the computer itself?
Does the numbering on this transport shown actually say 2402 or 2403?
We shall research these nitpickey questions next!
