Mario, good morning,
What on earth are you doing up already (or so late)?
Can't think of any T-T relation to this thread, either.
My IT career began on an old (well new back then) Honeywell
DDP-516 with 8 KILOBYTES of core memory and 16 kB of MOS memory.
We had more memory than we knew what to do with! Prior to that
it was only punch cards on the old IBM 360. Never even saw the
computer. Back then a shoebox was sometimes worth more than the
shoes that came in them! Today you get an entire PC in a
shoebox-size case.
Happy Holidays
Rick

fast enough
myself.
I learnt Pascal in order to write my own contest program in early
80's.
I can see that N4PY also escaped from hardware to software :-)
To KB3MM - I used DEC T-11 IC and made PC with 8 bit bus before
IBM!
Then came Turbo Pascal and I abandoned my own computer...
To NQ5T - We were younger and had more fun with the things first
done!
Nothing on T-T subject comes to my mind so early in the morning
:-)
