In the 90s? Encryption hardware? This sounds like the stories about the US Army training with wooden rifles pre-WW1.

Not that I don't believe it, it's just hard for someone who hasn't seen it to understand such slow acceptance of far superior methodology, especially since by the 90s the computer technology required was pretty cheap.

encryption hardware in my mind includes any terminals - my bad for improper terminology.
