The first computer I ever worked on had 8KB of core memory. It was an old Digital Equipment Corporation pdp-8/e. I loved that machine and its open face tale drives and teletype with paper tape punch and reader and card reader.

    It was a great machine. I was one of only 3 people in my high school who could enter the bootloader code using the front toggle switches so I would regularly be pulled out of class to run down to the computer trim and reboot the pdp-8/e.
