A computer vision from 1967

This is a clip from 1967 and it features a computer vision for the year 1997. The technical aspects aren't that interesting, but take a look at the social ones:

What the wife selects [she's shopping] on her console will be paid for by the husband at his counterpart console.

The wife is surfing some web-like-thing to do some – what else? – shopping and she looks after the kids by using a big brother-like omnipresent monitoring system. Her husband has to do all the financial stuff like paying the new dress for his wife.

Btw: Once again we see a vision of the paperless office. Just one paper is shown in the entire movie. Beside that all computer desks are totally clean.
