my 1st computer used punched paper tape for input....OK, so it wasn't
really MINE.....but Unkle Sam let me use it for a while....output was a
TTY.....we were really happy when paper tape was replaced by Mylar...:-D

then came IBM & punched cards....had to watch out for hanging chads...:(

graduated to a DEC PDP 11/75 running VAX/VMS...8)

remember when ....there was no internet....:cry:

in the beginning there was......ARPANET :shhh:
