	portable_typewriter_remington
		Remington had flirted with portability with its Junior machine of 1914 - 1919 (a luggable rather than portable machine) but the company was slower than its main rival, Underwood, to respond to the demand for truly portable machines and it was not until October 1920 that it unveiled the Remington Portable shown here.
		Remington quality was evident throughout in the engineering and the marketplace greeted the new machine in much the same way that IBM customers reacted to the introduction of the Personal Computer in 1982.
		Remington's most successful acquisition was the Noiseless Typewriter Company, whose silent typing technology they incorporated into a successful range of both desk and portable machines (including the machine shown as the Home icon on this site.) In 1927, Remington Typewriter Company merged with another office equipment company, Rand Kardex, to form Remington Rand.

		Rand's impossible ideal was humans as self-creating gods, with their minds and lives fully subject to volitional control.
		Rand's allegorizing tendencies are linked to her rejection of her Russian childhood, but also to a thread in Russian literature (traceable, through Christianity, back to Plato) that views persons as embodiments of ideas (e.g., Dostoevsky).
		Rand constructed her philosophical beliefs to force the conclusions she wanted - this is obvious in her esthetic views, but it also holds in the rest.
