Coolest thing to see in a long time... Last time I seen something so old was when I was almost a kid, and local bank ditched some 20Mb drives with changeable plates (screw on type in protective bell). Need a 100 thumbs up button for video like this!!!

Used one of these at work until 1984 - couldn't have programmers keying in data (too expensive) so forms were sent out to data preparation agencies to be punched onto cards, which were fed to this beast.
Nowadays, electronic dictation is saved to a Web server, typed in India and emailed back as text files. The old ways haven't died, merely evolved...

WHOW ! That's great to see an up and running DEC cardreader. As DEC employee 1977 I did "hate" this reader, primary the mechanical part. My compliment to have one reader still up and running. Super Video ...it's nostalgia.
