She should have tossed in a lite match.

Are those for fires on a diet?

That was the first computer printer I ever used.

They had a room full of 1403's (I think) at Ford. It was a neat sound when they were running full out.
There must have acres of 100mb disk drives and the tape drives I worked on.

Ahh, the good old days.

Old days? still the cheaper way to go for large storage needs today. Still good today I guess.

Are there any equivalent printers still working nowadays?

Good heck, he said tape drives and I thought large storage.

Thanks for the heads up.

Tape drives are still handy if you want to ship the data around or archive it. But the density of disk drives kind of passed them by. I spent about 20 years in that business with IBM, Storage Tek, and Aspen Peripherals. Two start ups. Lots of fun and work.

And now it's flash memory USB's turn... and solid state storage, which is the same thing.... except if you count the not so recent arrival of FRAM (ferro-magnetic ram) which I think will soon revolutionize storage still some more.

I didn't live it, just a class with questions for large long term storage. As memory serves me. I would use an emoji but it would need to be carved in stone for long term storage.

I think the Egyptians had that covered. (Literally)

I worked with a really smart guy at Storage Tek (Juan Rodriquez). Towards the end he ran the optical disk division.
It was a really bad idea, but none the less we pursued it with millions of dollars. It was a write once device and they struggled getting the disk to work. At the time I was working on magnetic disks so we went to the shop and punched some holes in a 14 inch disk and took it over to him as an example of how to do it. Similar to your Egyptian example.

And whatever happened to Juan???

Googling.....

He retired and moved back near his boyhood home in Norway.

You may say that as a joke... but I have a brother named P. Martínez who lives in Oslo... you'd never know he's Mexican by looking at him!

When you said, it was a startup, I automatically assumed it failed. The StorageTek name survives
