Screen? Who needs a freakin' screen?

thanks for bringing up another painful memory... Back in the day I had to use one of those buggers to do my programming project. And there's nothing quite like trying to put punch cards back into proper order after you drop them down a flight of stairs.

AND WE LIKED IT!!!!!

BTW - how did you manage to get a color photo of that antique!?

ROFL

I missed the punch card days by a bit but my oldest brother used one in University for some project he did in electronic engineering. He told me about the time he dropped his tray full of cards and then had to spend the next week trying to get them properly sorted.
