Remember punchcards?
Does anyone read them these days?
I'm just curious if anyone does, and if they do, how they do it.
Someone approached me with some tapes to read and they also had 2 boxes
of cards.
I remember a nifty desktop card reader attached to a PDP-8/L once. I
never used it but it sure seems like it would be easy/fun to wire it up
to something more modern.
Do small desktop card readers exist anymore? Anyone got one?
(I can hear the chorus now - "medication time!" :-)
