I swore I'd never forget the calculator company who had one of the first widely disseminated consumer devices, but now the name has seemingly escaped me...although I'm pretty sure it was National Semiconductor.

They were memorable because the legendary radio guy Dick Orkin (Chickenman!) did the commercials, which featured his unparalelled offbeat humor wherein ad execs were trying to identify the defining characteristics of the product. This eventually resulted in the creation of a catchy jingle, which went something like: "It's got big green numbers, and little rubber feet!"

Priceless.

Oh, and my favorite piece of technology is my computer.
