Century 101
Description

The NCR Century 101 is a powerful data processing system that can have a configuration to meet a wide range of business and scientific requirements. It performs well in batch processing applications where low-cost file capability is a major consideration. It also offers modest real-time capability, common trunk interfacing for a wide range of peripherals, low-cost simultaneity, and upward compatibility. This was a redesigned 615-100 platform that resulted in the 615-51, 615-101 and the 615-151 (actually it was an entry level 615-200). The logic design approach changed from discrete logic to a ROM (Read Only Memory) approach. The logic was on 7x8 cards instead of 4x4.
