What “supercomputer” did they use in 1968 to make the chip shape when Pringles were invented?
Edit:

A real human bean
10 vacuum tubes
ENIAC was built in 1945. And Cray was building supercomputers in the 60s
I understand that there were “supercomputers” for the day, but I don’t think they called them that. They were just computers. I want to know exactly which one was used to design a reconstituted potato chip.

I guess they needed it to mathematically design and calculate with it but idk
