I used 80-column punch cards (Digital TOPS-10), 96-column punch cards (IBM System/3) and paper tape (PDP-8/E with a Teletype Model 33 paper tape reader and punch), back in the day. Since it only snowed 2/3 of the year and there was only a slight hill, one-way to the IBM server, you've got me beat. :-) -- Dan Jenkins _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
