Haha...when I started the first thing I worked on was an 029 key punch machine. After you entered your data into that you ran it through a collator that you programmed with jumper wires that resembled the jacks a telephone operator used and the programming for the puter was cobol, fortran, basic machine language etc. The IBM 360 at OSU in Columbus, Ohio was about the biggest computer in the world, it had tape drives and took up a big room. I'm over 30 as you can probably guess.
