BULLCRAP! I remember seeing dot matrix 17" wide green bar printouts of hot digital women in the mid 70's at my dad's shop. This was back in the days of the punch card/magnetic tape COBOL 1/2 acre mainframe stuff.

Teletype porn is even earlier than that. :-)

One of my oldest computers is a PDP-8 with and ASR-33 as its terminal. My very oldest working computer is a 1963 Minivac 6010.

Well you beat me, I only go back to the VAX 11/780.

I still remember playing Star Trek and getting stripped of my command for detonating nearby stars with photon torpedoes...
on purpose!

Cheers!
