zonkie: IBM 360...LOL, I programmed one of those and hand wired all the sorting and collating machines for the punch cards.

Of course, the million dollar IBM 360 (with core storage) computer and the extra million dollars for the building and support equipment, coupled with the white coats the programmers wore was less powerful than one of today's hand held calculators...<g>
