It is kinda fun to look back at the things we thought as "modern" computers.

Mark & Michael,

It is kinda fun to look back at the things we thought as "modern" computers. The hard drive on this IBM-360 had four or five platters in a stack, each separated by about an inch or so. To change hard drives you would use a large plastic cover that looked like a really big cake cover. You would place the cover over the drive stack and screw the cover down onto the hard drive. Then you would pick up the whole hard drive and replace it with another drive which had another airlines data on it.

Lou


Ah yes the wonderful 2311 disk drive, when I got to HQ USMC in the early 70's they had upgraded to the 2314 "pizza ovens". Twice the platters and the actual drives looked just like a big pizza oven.

The worst disaster possible was a head-crash, the read writes heads making contact with the actual platter. Of course the system would ask you to change the pack to another drive. If you did without checking the surface, you would destroy the heads on the new drive.

There was a micoswitch which prevented the drive from spinning up if someone left the cover on the drive and closed the door.  Shocked
Someone left a cover on and the switch was bad. When the read-heads slammed into the cover the noise was horrendous. Scratch one drive and disk pack.

Our mainframe has 256k of core memory, we added 2megs of "low" read slow and external memory. Grin

the good old days,

Bruce

why not upload it to the CS library? Then we won't have any issues with a 3rd party hoster going offline.. there is a lot going on at the moment with sites like mega upload, torrent sites etc.

When I uploaded my first repaints,  files were too big for CS website. Now, I don't know how to edit these threads to replace the old links...  Huh

Bonjour,
Le site (megaupload.com) ne fonctionne plus ! y a-t-il une autre solution pour télécharger le repaint du 707C Air France 'Seventies' de Monsieur Emeric LEVASLOT ?

Merci à vous…
