Same here: when I was in college we were using punched cards, batch processing, and teletype machines. :sweat:
I did a computer programming course about a year after finishing: They were still using punch cards for RPG programming, but terminals for Cobol, Fortran and Basic. With 8" floppy disc drives :P
I wish i'd kept on with Cobol - a friend of mine gets paid big bucks to maintain Cobol programs that are STILL running.

LOL.
A year after I was done with my programming class, they switched over to DECWriters and VT100 terminals... And now they're gone as well. :hehe:
