1: What is the
oldest computer or comptuer system still in normal
operational use
Someone/group just ran a contest to find out the answer to that last
year. I don't recall who/what won, nor if I was "happy" with the result
:)
A friend has an IMSAI 8080 that he still uses to burn PROMs ... that's
the oldest one I know of.
If you want mainframes, one of our clients has an HP 3000/70 (dating
back to about 1983) still in continual daily use ... not sporadic.
I've personally seen with my own eyes an IBM S/360/30 still operating in
an industrial setting.
