In response to "Heh, I learned Basic and touched on C+ and Fortran. Commands typed on punch-cards and handed through a little window to an operator..." by Meg

OK. That's just swoon inducing as well as invoking feelings of sympathy

I had a college course that had me programming in FORTRAN on terminals and having to collect output from shared printer but at least the input wasn't via punch cards.

I'm only of the age where punchcards were something to be cut up and turned into flashcards.
