Comment Still have an old "calculator" with magnetic core (Score 1) 373
I think i still have what we call a "dinosaur".
A 1969 Wang 700, Calculator 4 bit cpu, and is using 1k of magnetic core memory, an old ASR33 teletype as a terminal and the old disk drive who weight about 50 pounds. It's fun to format a floppy with "turn the key and press the format button" No fat, you have to take note of the sector number where de program is saved. Also have an old Digital pro/350 with a lot of peripheral. And the MOST important i kept all the documentation about them
And i don't talk about the games consoles, old apple stuff, antique TV and Radio floating around in my shack.
And YES i'm single... :) anyone interested 32yrs computer tech, Montreal area....
