[edit] ICT or ICL?

Some of the 1900 machines mentioned here were produced long after ICL came into being, including I imagine all of the "A" series machines and, I think, the "E" and "T" series too. For the sake of accuracy they should be e.g. "ICL 1903A" etc. Can anyone provide the dates to allow a correct assignment? TraceyR 13:24, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

At Pasquali.org there's a table showing that the 1904/5 E/F were probably ICT machines, but everything from 1901A onwards were produced/sold under ICL. I'll change the article and see what happens! TraceyR 13:32, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
I was hired to program the ICT-1902 (in PLAN) circa 1964-1966. The 1902 was purchased from ICT, although by delivery the manufacturer might have been ICL. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Barvennon (talk • contribs) 23:23, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
I worked on an ICL1905F in the late 1970s. I didn't know the history of that particular machine but it was certainly badged ICL. I think the point, though, is the original name for the range of machines, not the name used for existing (continued) ranges after ICL came into being. Northernhenge (talk) 09:05, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
