I grew up around this stuff and come from a house that ran programs on paper tape and punch cards in the beginning. I was still running programs on paper tape in the 80's while in the Navy.
I used to have a box of cards in my office. They had quit using them by
the time I started there, but they were still around. In the mid-90's I
worked for a company that had an AS/400 that still used "drum memory."
When they had to get a new unit, they had to buy it from a company in
Brazil. Apparently, they were the only other ones still using it.
