I took just one computer science class in college: Intro to Computers. That meant Fortran and Assembly Language on a Burroughs mainframe. I recall standing in line to use the key punch, punching, standing on line at the card reader, waiting for your printout to be called, and then doing the whole process over again when you found out you made a typo. Eventually they installed a few terminals but certain individuals would literally live at their workstations for days in order to finish a project. Sometimes you'd find them just zonked out and... hey, wait a minute... do I know you? (gg)
