Re: History
Hi, I hope this is not seen as a bad post but I have about 200MB of old ASCII pictures from back in the 60's and early '70's. I used to keep my collection on paper tape but in '73 I translated it to an '029 card deck, then in '80 collected all I could find from everyone I knew and put it on an IBM mag tape. I have kept this tape for all these years hoping I'd find someone that might want it for historical reasons of the computing stuff of that age. Maybe this group is the right one? The only problem I have now is how to find a 9 track drive to read it? It was written at 6250bpi and 3383 bytes/record. Yes a LOT of them are Snoopies, etc, Start treck stuff, the moon in 36 page multistrike Line printer art, presidents, etc...ect... Anyone with some ideas on what (if anything) I should do with this at this time? liz...@ibm.net
