    1. “Electronic Mail is a term that’s been bandied about data processing circles for years.” Honeywell takes out an ad to explain the concept of Electronic Mail. But it wasn’t running the ad in mainstream consumer magazines; this ad was targeted at computer enthusiasts and run in computer news magazines like *Computerworld* and *Datamation.* The general public wouldn’t become aware of e-mail until the 1990s.
