Punch Cards!!!!

Ahhhh.... the memories.

Offering up a stack of cards to the mainframe gods in hopes they would look kindly upon your program.

Peering through the glass windows as the high priests worked their black magic in the air conditioned comfort of their raised floor alters.

Waiting for hours to see if your program ran successfully or fell victim to a typo or a card out of place.
