I like it when you tell those stories. Ghu, I'm an old fart... I remember sticking phone headsets into 110 baud modems in the computer lab in college to connect to the timesharing system... and submitting card decks to run jobs on an IBM 1130. And the little pranks, like putting program cards with an 80-column-wide 'duplicate' field onto the program cylinders of the 029 keypunch machines and flip the 'program' switch up to catch the unobservant... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember finding the cardstock-and-spring tachitoscope (sort of like the one in this patent) my parents had, working up through the settings until the fastest one was still too slow, and trying to get it to work faster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
