Wow That’s Fascinating IBM Sold Billions of Punch Cards Before disks, programs and data were stored on punch cards. IBM once manufactured over a billion cards per year—each one a paper memory chip. Black background with orange text and decorative lines. Bottom text reads: vintage.computer.
Wow, that’s fascinating 🤯
Before hard drives and SSDs, data lived on punch cards. IBM once produced over a billion cards per year. Each one a tiny slice of paper memory powering business, science, and early computing.

Throughout the museum there are also lots of 'HERstory' displays about the forgotten women in computer science's history.

"NEC2 was based on punch cards and an antenna model was described as a series of Cards. These are well documented. Nec2++ replaces these cards with function calls each function call the equivalent of an nec2 card."
Yes, the simulation model is so old and was […]

"In 1966 [...] five megabytes of data—a relatively small amount by today's standards—required an astounding 62,500 punched cards."
