I saw a couple Honeywell 101 tape recorder at the recycler the other day in that distinctive powder blue color. I noticed that a lot of vintage mainframes, minis, computers, and peripherals were in that powder blue color (including cubicle walls and soldering irons.) Is there some sort of history behind that color? Was it started by IBM? Or is my bitty brain just noticing it now because I'm looking for it?
