Originally we had something like a lowly 360/30 (this

Del) but then a 370/158 was moved down from NYC. All of the databases
were on tape - disk was only used for temporary storage for a long time.
Later we got CICS and more on-line disk storage, and (yowza!) things like
source code control.
729's on the model 30?
No matter how you cut it, sorting on tape beat sorting cards on unit
