I remember 80-column punch cards. I don't remember the model of the keypunch machine, but I do remember that it was large, heavy, and

I remember two models -- KP-26 & KP-29.
I had my own (as probably did others) card 'programmed' for certain stops, so I
didn't have to space over.
I guess that was the precurser to tab stops on a 327x terminal.
