Yeah, still a young whipper snapper. I did, however, have the opportunity to work on some older military equipment. I graduated from 1960's era tube radar equipment to some old Sperry Univac systems. We used TI Silent 700 thermal printers (we don't need no stinkin' monitors) for i/o. And if I could have a dollar for every card I've punched.... <sigh> the good old days. And, oh oh oh, our hard drive! It was a CDC Hawk with a fixed 5MB hard platter! Man, it screamed, especially when the heads crashed, which happened on a regular basis. Back in those days, when you had a head crash, you cleaned it, replaced the heads, platter, and absolute filter, aligned the heads, and put it back into service. I could do that in less then an hour.

ROFL... only 20 years? A relative newcomer hehehe. There is something to be said for staying away from management positions... but the money is hard to ignore. -----Original Message----- From: Ook [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, April 17, 2006 11:36 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [hlds] re: Disabled Account Only if you are successful at what you do :P Egads, and IT director. What company, how big is your department? Having been a programmer for 20 years, I've never met an IT director (or any manager for that matter) who's job I wanted <shudder>.
