Yes, and IBM 360 / IBM 370 mainframes!   Do you remember these?

Yes! My “yellow card” that later morphed into a booklet!

They still had a 360 at my new employers' place in 1998, running an old payroll program for another month or so. They tried for a few months to get someone to take it off their hands, even for free. No takers. Went into the landfill.

Yes. I had a few 360 assembler classes in the late 70s.

My parents refused to buy a computer for my bedroom as well as refusing to get me a web connection.

I was deprived as a kid. I need reparations!
