I wrote my senior project on a CDC-4800, I don't think you can beat
that. A real "main frame" computer.


Actually, that's way newer than most of the ones I worked on. Heck, it

had
RTL IC's and (if I recall correctly) those wierd back-to-back cards. Not

a
vacuum tube in sight.


The part that was instructive about the CDC4800 mainframe was that it was
built on a frame similar to a telephone frame. The original I/O device was
a card reader, but there was tape for it by the 1970s.
