A Look Back In Time: Casio First Founded Today in 1957!
Possibly THE biggest retro brand ever, Casio has been a household name for a long as we can remember. When it came to gadgets in the 80s, 90s and well...even today, it's hard to think of some of the most iconic products without something from this
.
Perhaps not one of the best and most successful launches ever known to man, Casio's first attempt at wowing potential customers pretty much ended in failure. Boarding the plane to their very first product reveal, two of the founding Kashio brothers quickly learned that their super delicate and high-tech calculator was simply too large for them to take onto the plane...
.
A quick solution was to remove the top part of the contraption, which, much to the brother's dismay, would irreparably damage it.
