National Cash Register

Hi. I have a national cash register from the 1800s I'm guessing. Does anyone know why the name MJ Kiley would be in larger print on the front. It is literally part of the cash register.. thanks in advance 73.68.31.200 (talk) 12:32, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

likely because that's the customer that originally bought said cash register. Customer name plaques were a common customization. quick web search seems to indicate M.J. Kiley being "Steam Printers" in the US northeast 174.93.156.219 (talk) 17:54, 21 December 2023 (UTC)

NCR 3600

Please remove the sentence "The 3600, through NCR subsidiary Applied Digital Data Systems supported both the Pick Operating System and Prime Information" because it has marginal importance. NCR 3600 was a extreme expensive massively-parallel system based on Intel CPUs (like the whole 3000 series) and working only with Teradata database. There have been strong attempts to implement Sybase - but the efforts failed. Fortunately we eventually managed to install Oracle Parallel Server, because the customer rejected Teradata. PS there ave been plans to manufacture even stronger model - the NCR 3700 - but this has never happen. The NCR 3000 series - strictly based on "Wintel" architecture (and AT&T Unix SVR4 - because Microsoft was not able to handle multiprocessor- and massive parallel systems - at the time) - was covering the entire computer range - from real pen (wireless touch-sensitive Wacom) based tablets (NCR 3125) and notebooks, trough desktops (3200 (later named by the competitors "thin clients") and 3300), servers (one of the first multiprocessors 3400 (tower) and 3500 (rack) - sold lots of them :) up to "mainframes" 3600 and 3700 - could become the world best computer series ever - unfortunately the company pursued efforts to make them proprietary - what eventually destroyed the whole NCR computer business - despite not only SCSI (NCR 53C80 chip), but also Intel 4004 (designed for a NCR cash register - produced by Japanese Busicom) and also WiFi (Wave LAN) have their roots in NCR :((( 188.167.251.57 (talk) 08:50, 8 November 2023 (UTC)

Proposal to Create Separate Wikipedia Page for NCR Atleos

Hey everyone,

I wanted to bring up a suggestion for discussion regarding the Wikipedia page for NCR Voyix. As some of you may know, NCR Corporation recently underwent a restructuring, resulting in the creation of NCR Voyix and the spin-off of NCR Atleos, which now operates independently, focusing primarily on the banking line of business and ATMs.

Currently, when users search for NCR Atleos on Wikipedia, they are redirected to the NCR Voyix page. However, legally speaking, NCR Atleos is a distinct entity that should have its own Wikipedia page to accurately reflect its status as a separate, spun-off company.

I believe it would be beneficial for Wikipedia users to have access to comprehensive information about both NCR Voyix and NCR Atleos, allowing them to better understand the corporate landscape of NCR Corporation and its subsidiaries.

What are your thoughts on this? Do you agree that NCR Atleos deserves its own Wikipedia page? Let's discuss and see if we can reach a consensus on this matter. Your input is greatly appreciated!

How about starting with a section explaining Atleos? It's only mentioned on the page. That would help prove that there's enough content. Mind Wikipedia's guidelines around conflicts of interest as well. tedder (talk) 18:34, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
