I'm 46. My first (and only formal) CS course was conducted using
teletypes and a mainframe in Canada, while I was in Phoenix AZ: the
McGill University System for Interactive Computing, or MUSIC, which
taught us BASIC.
There was a card reader in the building, but I never used it for
anything. I did use up a lot of fan-fold paper, though, as this was an
actual clatter-type teletype, not one of your fancy "glass terminals".
It was very nice to spend the god-awful summer in a 70° room...

I read about a study that managers overestimate the salaries of
their peers and those managers below them and underestimate the
salary of peers above. I think maybe for me a similar mechanism
occurred with age. Hmmmm...

Good luck with that one! It would be too funny if you did. :)
Almost 45 and (hopefully) keeping counting.
