IBM hard disk drive being loaded on a Pam Am jet in 1956. The 305 RAMAC weighed one ton and stored 5MB.
So there I was moving one of our first computers, along with some of the manuals that went with it, and I decided to share a pic.
I think we got the computer in 1981, but I can’t be sure. It was a brand new release at the time, and I swear you could kill someone with that heavy keyboard! LOL
It was the first computer I could play around with, not that there was much to actually play with. I can still remember my excitement when we got the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy game. All text based and infurating as hell really quickly. Never did win that thing....
Still, I loved the way you could get right into the workings of the thing. None of this stupid “user friendly” interface crap. I prefered mucking with DOS to stuff that’s supposed to be intuitive but never is for me, and have stacks of manuals rather than online “help” that rarely does and I can’t get on to without my internet.
Then again, I’m a person that believes all houses should be built with removeable hatches over wiring and pipes so you can get at stuff to fix. I’m a hands on kind of gal. LOL
