Does anyone else remember making pictures on greenbar paper of ships,
Well, once for some obscure reason� we had a drawing in the math department where the advertised prize was a "100-foot yacht." The "100-foot yacht" turned out to be a stack of said continuous-form printer paper which, when extended, was 100 feet� long, with the word "YACHT" printed over and over and over . . .
�Isn't "They are _math_ majors" explanation enough?
�Sorry, Alberto, this was done on an IBM 1403 printer�, which used paper that was sized in inches, not centimeters.
�Anyone else here ever use one of those? Remember what would happen when the paper control tape finally wore out and broke in the middle of a print job?
people, etc?
Something like this, perhaps, which some geek with no prospects of access to the real thing� would spend hours creating and then hang on the wall of the computer room (Whoever heard of a _female_ CS major in those days) or his dorm room�?
�Not me. �I never lived in a dorm, either.
