I was in the last Ramac 305 class ever held, on lunch break and had watched the motorcade pass from a lunchroom window. Needless to say, we didn't talk about triggers, cathode followers or "bit carries" (deliver me!) in class that afternoon. It has been an interesting trip, eh?
Reading closely the rest of the thread, I 'programmed' plugboards on 5xx series unit record machines, ran 026, 027, and 029's; ran the 13 pocket sorter; later wrote tape and print spooling deivers for our 1401, and all that. I don't miss them either.
