D'OH! You're right! The manual one IS an Olivetti! They have a Smith Corona as well, but it's an electronic. Interesting that the electronic is $30 cheaper than the manual!

Well...you figure the manual is built to last, is more complex that just putting in a mass-produced system board and a daisy wheel, and probably has a LOT more metal parts than the electronic, and I guess it makes sense...maybe.
