You are right. Ill have to delete the history when I go in there with another $2000. ;) Btw..... for some reason I ended up 50 cents ahead after the change count. I didn't know they would pay me too!

haha...In high school we didn't have floppy drives...we had what were called RAM disk. Apple cadraw, in our drafting class. One week was dedicated to electronic drafting (no pencils). It somehow saved our drawings for the next class. I don't remember how it worked. I think they stayed powered up somehow, must have been some sort of eprom or some such. Very limited capacity, this was in 1982. It was a box about the size of a briefcase. I remember those days, sometimes..

Don't forget the Punch Cards used in the main frames. In 1970 it took hundreds of cards just to print out a crude picture and we all stood around and marveled at the high tech!!! (I'm 55)
