Description
The Elea 4001 was a 7-bit computer, on which the Olivetti engineering team worked around 1963. I gather from the information I have found that it was not marketed and evolved towards an 8-bit computer called Elea 4-115. In 1964 Olivetti sold its computer division to General Electric and this machine was adopted by GE, becoming the GE-115. It was also sold by Bull under the name Gamma 115. This one was a successful computer: apparently about 5,000 were sold worldwide.
