Damn! You must be old! I've only been doing it since 75'. Mainframes still rule.

I'm just 55 - I started when I was 19 or 20, working at the computing center at NCSU where we had a 360/40 with a TP link to the 360/75 at TUCC. The major bottleneck in those days was the wait for a keypunch machine. I spent many a night there as the turnaround was much better after midnight!
