I started on Microdata systems back in 1982.  Same big 'ol "washtub"

drives,

1/2" reel tapes and Interrupt-Reset-Interrupt or
Interrupt-Reset-Clock-Interrupt paddle-switch sequences.
        The first machine I worked on was a Microdata 1600 with 4 50 MB

Winchester

"washtub" drives.  It ran 16 users on 64K of core memory.  That was

back
in

1981.

Wow.  You guys are really old.
