In 1973, I was a freshman electrical engineering major in college, and hating it. My roommate was a Comp Sci major, and convinced me to go talk to the department chair about changing my major, which I subsequently did. A few weeks later I was talking to my folks on the phone and mentioned I had changed my major to Comp Sci. My mother said (and I quote) "You realize, of course, there's no future in computers." The next thing she said was "And I'll bet you are doing this just so you won't have to take so much math." Graduated with a double degree in --- you guessed it. Comp Sci and Mathematics.

I used to have a short program keyed in from the front panel switches for our DEC KI-10 that would rotate the lights in interesting patterns.
or 80 column boot straps?
Nope, but we did have paper tape and DECtape bootstraps. -- Mike Iglesias Email: iglesias () uci edu University of California, Irvine phone: 949-824-6926 Office of Information Technology FAX: 949-824-2270
