Leader RedBaird Posted May 24, 2013 Leader Posted May 24, 2013 i have never heard of "floppy disk". is it new? i am still using: 213728377_f0ea07af84.jpg One of my instructors explained that he began his programming career on cards. They would have to 'cut' their programs onto cards, load them onto card-carts and push them over to the program-loader station. There were the occasional card-cart collisons, resulting in cards from two or more programs mixed together on the floor. There was much cursing before the picking up and hand-sorting commenced. I now suspect that they were racing each other to the card-loader, where the loser had to wait the longest, but who knows what they told the bosses. Quote
