No problem, I should have paid more attention to the poster name - thought you were under 30. I started out programming in the early 70s with punch cards, paper tape and teletypes. Removable disk packs were new tech! Magnetic tape was king. One of the machines I used had DRUM storage. The PDP-8 had magnetic CORE memory.....

I wish I had been born 15 years later, but you know how much time spent wishing things like that is worth...
