I got in the computer industry back in 1982. Paper tape was still being used on some of the puters in the data center, but the stuff that I worked on was all magnetic. We had the 1Mb Pertec removable disk drives and 40Mb multi-platter drives that were the size of washing machines. The system that the company made was an electronic pre-press system for newspapers and magazines. They had laser scanners and laser typesetters and a text pagination system. Each component had 64k of memory. Oh, and they didn't have printed circuit boards....it was all wire wrap.
