Regitel cash register, about 1970, NMAH 2002.0091.01. The Regitel is an early point-of-sale (POS) electronic cash register. Such terminals capture information about sales for computer processing. The device was made by the American Regitel Corporation and installed as a part of a networked system in department stores across the nation. The networks communicated over telephone systems at 9600 baud, which was extremely fast for the time period. Smithsonian photo AHB2010r7393
