I may be resident geezer here. I started out on punch cards and real
core; disks, files, stacks, and registers were yet to appear.
Response time was measured in days ... in fact, to this day I can
remember feeling a sense of awe the first time I handed in a card deck
and got back the output listing in one trip to the comp center.
I don't recognize "ASR33", but most early teletypes were 110 baud.
The first 300 baud terminal I can remember was the TI SilentWriter;
the "portable" model had a built-in acoustic modem.
