One of the projects I had as first-year/second-year in college was designing and building a 32-bit adder/subtracter(inverse-add)/multiplier/divider. Thankfully, we did have transistors and simple ICs by then. :-)
The jump from RTL to TTL to IC were each quite a major leap in circuit density. Regards, Michael B.

It did addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. It was as big as a suitcase and had a cathode-ray tube for the display. The thing had something like 8 PC boards, and each board must have had 100 transistors. What a beast... -----Original Message----- From: Michael B.

You programmed it by plugging jumper wires into a removable patch panel that was about 2' square, and then switch out the entire patch panel depending on what job you needed to run. -----Original Message----- From: Neil Hobson [mailto:nhob...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, August 06, 2010 11:53 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Help with unsolicited mail Late '96 was when I joined my first real email mailing list (other than bulletin boards!) and I was doing Exchange 4.0 then, but I started way before that doing X400 (like Dec AllIn1) and stuff like the Isocor and Retix gateways. Overall in IT I can remember using 8" and 10" floppies in the mid 80s, but I'll stop short of punched tape! I know you go back a fair way in IT too (but not too far of course!) - so what's your most archaic piece of equipment you can remember? I always think of Ed C and his 300-baud acoustic modem. :) -----Original Message----- From: Michael B.
