A big pine tree? Well since it’s only been about a dozen years I can see why the memory is still so fresh. For me the machines pressed a stylus on clay tablets.
Rhonda was miffed that everybody else in the known universe was using an IBM Selectric which had been invented 7 years earlier. Ultimately she found a job at the Department of Motor Vehicles where the manual unit was still considered current technology.
We had an IBM Selectric! Your assessment is not far-fetched. They are probably transitioning to floppy disc technology this week. And then Rhonda can retire!

I so admire her typewriter, though, Kerbey.

So I couldn’t see my fingers. She was a Bony Maroney; that’s what I remember. Like a big pine tree.
