More about "Bendy" the Bendix G-15 (1950s computer)

A model airplane resembling a large, off-white missile or torpedo, with a red fin on its tail, sits on a muted gray background. The airplane has two small, black wheels with silver hubs, one near its front and one closer to the back, with thin landing gear visible. Its body is smooth and slightly glossy, with the word "Bend" written in bold, black sans-serif font along its side, starting approximately one-quarter of the way from the tail. Further forward from the word "Bend" is a section of gray, square grilles that wrap around the circumference of the airplane. The very front of the airplane features a large, dark, circular opening with a metallic silver rim, resembling an intake. Directly above this opening, a small, silver, spherical detail projects from the airplane's surface. Near the tail, about halfway along the body, there are five small, black circular dots arranged in a horizontal line, resembling portholes or vents. The airplane is lit from above, creating subtle shadows beneath its wheels and body on the gray surface.
