I thought I would bring to the list's attention the article "The Monoliths: 17 Supercomputers from the ’60s," about portrayals of Sixties-era computers in media, just posted on The Onion's AV Club website:

The AV Club being widely read and reblogged among a certain net-savvy demographic, you might see variations or commentaries on this topic popping up around the web or on social media in the next few days. Nice opportunity for historians of computing to engage with a popularly-generated discussion of computers in cultural imagination.

Best,
