Vacuum tubes, slide rules, calculators, physical books ... Of course, once we get the implants in our heads, we will be able to visualize everything without ever being there! That is what I like about horses, they will bring you back to planet earth if you forget how to behave around them, just as it was before our virtual age!

The instructor was a radio ham who had a working rig there in the class (VE3SIC, if anyone cares...). Wwere told that the following year, they would stop teaching tubes and go solid state.

I spent many an hour programming by the front panel switches in Octal. I still remember 210000base8 is an unconditional jump. :-) My first personal computer was a Sphere circa '78-79 with tape and TV RF-Out. Had a Motorola 6800 and 1k of 8 bit memory. I guess after working 41 actual years with electronics (started with tubes) I'd be classified as either a fossil or an oldtimer. Steve Stephen W.

Only it was on a 360/50 way back in '69 when I started. NDSU had gone from an IBM 1620 to an IBM 360/50 with the help of an NSF loan about a year earlier. For a while there was such a gap in processing speed we'd actually shut down the computer in the evening. ;-) Marty Jeff Kell wrote:
